December 10

Some evenings, after the kids have gone to bed, I'll find Adam just lying in front of the Christmas tree, looking up at the lights.

We have the kind that alternate between white and colored, and I have to admit that there's something soothing about watching them gradually change from one to the other and then back again. It's kind of like pressing a reset button. And some days, pushing that button and sitting and deliberately remembering the handful of Christmases that I shared with that boy there in the picture is just what I need to do.
