One of the reasons I really wanted to have a kid was that there’s so much to look forward to — the birth, seeing him learn to walk, and the day he can use the toilet on his own (soooo looking forward to that).

I’m also looking forward to bigger stuff like holding an actual conversation with my son, discovering what his interests are (besides eating rocks), and in general just seeing what kind of person he becomes.

I’m still looking forward to all of that. But as he transitions from baby to child, I can tell that there are things I’m going to miss as well. And no matter how tightly I hold on, he’s not going to be a baby forever. All the more reason to cherish it while I can.
