― J.M. Barrie, Peter Pan
I never realized how creepy some of the elements of Peter Pan are until I planned a "Neverland" themed birthday party. I mean, he says some weird stuff.
I'm excited to spend time with family and friends, and even some little friends, for Piper and Gabriel's birthdays tomorrow. But how are we already here? I don't always feel like a grown-up myself, and somehow I'm responsible for these little lives and hearts.
Alas, my children are growing. And we are celebrating. But first, I am remembering the feeling of holding each of them for the first time, and praying that I never lose that memory.
