Almost Six. Three months from today, Jeremiah will be six years old. SIX!!! I can’t believe how quickly time has moved, and yet how slowly some days have felt. It’s wild to sit here and think about everything we’ve been through together. From the pandemic in 2020 that felt like the world was standing still, to now — where my little boy is suddenly this big kid with his own thoughts, his own personality, and a heart that keeps growing every day. Sometimes I look at him and I still see that baby who fit perfectly in my arms. The one who needed me for everything. Now he’s taller, louder, funnier, and more curious than ever. Almost six… and I’m trying to hold on to every moment before it slips into a memory. It hasn’t been easy, but I’ve shown up for him every single day, even on the days when I felt like I had nothing left to give. Morning drop-offs after overnight shifts. Packing his meals. Making sure he sees my face before school starts and again when he gets off that bus. All the little things that seem small on the outside but mean the world to him — and to me. As I think about him turning six, I’m overwhelmed with gratitude. He’s growing, thriving, and becoming this incredible human being. And through it all, I feel Nick watching over him, over us. I see little reminders of him in the way Jeremiah cares, the way he checks in on me, the way he says things that sound just like his “daddy Nick” in heaven. Six years. My baby is turning six. And even though time keeps moving faster than I want it to, I’m proud — proud of him, proud of myself, proud of how far we’ve come together. Here’s to these last three months before six. Here’s to the little boy who changed my whole world. #almostsixyearsold #boymom #boymomlife #boymomforlife #boymomadventures #singlemom #christcenteredlife #childofgod #2020babies #raisingbilingualkids #halftaiwanesehalfdominican
