Taller

I was just saying to my good friend Amy that Sam was starting to take on a different look. Lean...taller. She knew exactly what I was talking about. She remembers seeing the change in her son Thomas. I blinked and the next thing I knew the baby fat was gone. My baby has been replaced with a boy. A running, climbing, outdoor loving boy.

But still a mama's boy.

We took this picture yesterday which I think captures the change I see.

His face looks strained because he is trying to get the camera from Russ' mother. Russ' parents were in town over the weekend. She had the strap... it was tug of war between them. He didn't win.
