Tonight I watched Andrew perform at the high school holiday band concert. He looked so handsome in his tuxedo and I am proud of his musical accomplishments.
As a mother, I can close my eyes and remember the sweet boy who wore overalls all the time, and made the best peanut butter and honey sandwiches for me. He always made up games for us to play and I was amazed at the complexity of his thoughts.
Now I look at the loving, caring young man who carries himself with confidence and I am proud to be his mom. The best thing is, I know if I asked him to play "Elevator" he would smile his big, genuine smile, laugh and say "Remember when we use to play that? That was so much fun! Ding!"
