A Big Boy


On Saturday evening, as I was making chili for dinner, I realized I was without cheese or sour cream, two essential chili toppings.  I called my friend Heidi, who lives around the corner, and asked if I could borrow some of both.  She said yes.  I was in the middle of cooking, so I asked Brandt if he would run an errand for me.  All by himself.  Even though we live in a very safe area and all our neighbors know Brandt, this is the first time I have ever sent him around the block without me.  

Brandt was thrilled to go on his own.  He came home quickly, so pleased with himself, bearing chili toppings.  Our boy is growing up.  (And getting so, so handsome.)
