"Kids grow up too fast".
I'm more inclined to believe that kids
grow up at a normal rate and that time is distorted by parents taking
too long to get used to the phase of development the child is in until
they're well into it and starting to get out of it, or being too self
centred at the wrong time.
So we are going to enjoy every single
day of Tao's life, not because we never know when we may lose him, but
because he is an amazing piece of work, something beautiful, the
greatest thing that both of us have the privilege to be responsible for,
because he deserves the attention, and because we love him ever so very
much.
