Kieran Turns Double Digits

It feels pretty incredible that I've been a Mama for ten years today.

At church today, Kieran was asked how he felt about turning 10. He said that he was excited about turning double digits, but he'd have a wait a while before he turns triple digits. Always the mathematician with a witty sense of humor.

Kieran has been a unique spirit since day one, even his birth was easy going and joyful. I feel like my job as his mother from here on out is to cherish his unique spirit and help give him the space to grow. When we moved to Astoria Kieran decided that it was time for him to start volunteering and he decided to help out at the library one afternoon a week after school. They admiringly teased us that he's like he's really closer to 19 at heart. I've always felt that he was an old soul, especially when he was a newborn. It's hard to believe that he's a tween already, and I'm preparing myself to help guide him through the next big chapter of growth and hope that the world embraces him as I do.
