Not a baby anymore....
My little brother Gabriel just celebrate his first communion this past weekend in Sioux City. My mom and I went shopping to find new pants and a tie for his special occasion. While we were at Kohl's we found the cutest little outfit- long sleeve shirt, tie, vest, and dress pants, and we were looking everywhere for a size 8- but the largest they had was a 7x. So sad, he's all grown up now- I can still remember him crawling down the hallway of my dorm my freshman year of college. Now, he's playing little league ball, in the Siouxland Youth Chorus, and his "big teeth" are growing in (just as crooked as mine were, by the way). I'm sure this is only a smidge of how moms feel about their babies growing up....
