The change of seasons

Not the seasons of fall and spring but the ones that happen in families. Today I’m at the pool with Silas and Lydia. They are adorable together. Lydia is his best friend. He started to choke and she jumped right in to save him. They were doing high jump competitions and I wish I was videoing. Lydia made a huge jump and Silas starts scooping air to his mouth with an invisible spoon and says Lydia we are eating this up and they bump fists. Then both do this new thing with their fingers and say “fries.” All this kid talk has me confused but they both get it. And while this is all beautiful to watch I miss Timmy and Grace. Timmy is in the keys with Tim and his boy about troop having the time of his life and Grace has landed a new babysitting job so she’s doing that today. I wish I could freeze time, maybe even rewind a bit.
