This morning I went to wake up my teen and found him asleep in precisely the position I remember him in as a napping toddler, hand beneath cheek, just the same face and same person only larger. An extraordinary feeling I can’t get into words

We bought a king bed when he was a baby so we could all sleep together. Once or twice a month, my 6'1", bearded, 6-pack 18-year-old climbs under the cover and draws on his tablet or watches videos next to me while I read. It remains his comfort spot. I'll never take that emotion for granted.
Oh I know that feeling, my middle son looks just like he did at birth, sometimes it’s heart stopping! I just get on my tiptoes and stroke his cheek 🥰 he’s 6’4” and I’m 5’11”.

Those parents among us that have seen similar things in our lives completely understand.
I love how they have grown and matured but I miss when they were small.
