October 30

Adam had a day trip to Oregon and Isaac had a shift at the Dairy, so this evening it was just me and Brady. And he had practice over at Livermore High School, so it was really just me and my buddies Walmart and Target for a few hours.

Anyway, as I dropped Brady off, I watched him walk through the parking lot, open the gate, and disappear down the path that leads to the Varsity field. 

And skinny legs aside, he just looked so old to me. Not so much like the little kid I've always known him to be and more like someone riding a bullet train toward adulthood. 

Although the revelation made me a little sad, I'm so grateful to have the gift of watching him grow up.
