There is a small part of me that has been in denial that Joey is growing up. I still see him as a little guy. Partly due to his size, partly because he is my only boy.
Today Joey had a dentist appointment to have sealants put on and to have a small cavity filled. He was so incredibly brave. He went into the room all by himself without a single look back. There were no tears.
After he was done I took him to school and the office worker gave him a tardy slip to bring to his teacher. I stood there, holding Peyton's tiny hand, and watched Joey walk down the hallway all by himself and in that one moment I realized that while he is little and still a boy, he is no longer a little boy.
