this is the boy

This is the boy who leads his three little brothers into battle everyday…

This is the boy who charges me to cut his hair (the budget’s been a little tight)…

This is the boy who daydreams about scooters and skateboards…

This is the boy who spends an hour and a half in the pool every night with his coach perfecting his strokes…

This is the boy who is excited for summer vacation but concerned about losing touch with his girlfriend…

This is the boy who is growing more and more independent each and every day…

This is the boy who spent the evening with me last night learning how to cast and untangle and take care of his new fishing pole…

This is the boy who still refuses to drink soda…

This is the boy who eats Alfredo noodles six times a week…

This is the boy who makes good choices about eighty percent of the time…

This is the boy who made one of the remaining twenty percent decisions the other day when he jumped over this balcony just to see if he could do it (what was the alternative I wonder)…

This is the boy who makes me smile and shake my head in wonder everyday…
