Day five...

Children have never been very good at listening to their elders, but they have never failed to imitate them.  ~James Baldwin

Dietrich was so excited to go to his "school" today.  He is quickly growing into such a little man.  I love this picture because it shows how much he has grown in just three short years.  In ten days he will be three and it is easier to see it everyday.  Makes me a little sad, but also so happy.  That is the thing with children, it is such a bittersweet experience to be a parent.  We are so happy to see them grow big and strong and develop their own personalities, but it also sad to say good-bye to the little ones that they were.  Ah, life.
