The Outdoors

Since James was a newborn, he has loved getting out of the house.  In my moments of desperation, I would put him in his car seat (which he loved), and put him on the back porch just to get him to stop crying. 

I would drive and drive up and down Two Notch Road trying anything to soothe this newborn baby.

As he got older, I started taking him to Publix or Target just to get him out of the house.  When he’s fussy, anywhere is better than home.

I have said since James was teeny tiny that once this kid is in high school, it’ll be, “Bye, Mom” here and “See you later” there.

Now, I’m starting to wonder… is this baby of mine already trying to escape home?

Mr. James is on the move.  And I am just trying to accept that my baby is growing up.
