underwear

So tonight I was folding laundry and had to take a moment to contemplate Jake's underwear. Yes- my 3 year old is officially out of diapers. Where did the time go? I can't believe that I can be working in the kitchen and hear the toilet flush..only to see my bright-eyed little man running out all by himself. Sure- his pants are down to his ankles and his underwear is on backward, but did he really just grow up before my eyes? My little man; backpack on for school, eating pizza by the slice, singing songs, learning letters, writing his name, saying a Bible verse, helping in the kitchen, coloring with markers, telling me he loves me...the list goes on.

My days seem like an eternity, but the years are flying by. I have to stop and smell the underwear (O.K, maybe just look) once in a while.
