Last week was G's share week at school. He mostly just took some of his dinosaurs which are his prized possessions. He wanted me to make him a slideshow of pictures of his life up until now. It made me miss that life. Not Powell necessarily but the freedom that living there afforded me.
The life of a momma of a little boy who always wanted to be outside. The life of a momma who was teaching that boy how to read, how to navigate the world. I miss being with him all the time and capturing the world through his eyes.
I miss my boy, even if he doesn't want much to do with me on my days off, I miss just being there.

The slideshow was a big hit among his classmates. They wanted to watch it a second time but the teacher had only allocated ten minutes for it. She said she's never had a student do a picture slideshow for a share day. She loved it. G loved it too, he previewed it and approved it the night before and choked up a few times.
I hope you enjoy a "quick" 9.5 minute glance back at G's life!
