It Was Quiet.. for a Little While.
Category: The Evil Stepmother |

We all have them.. those moments when we don’t have a camera, and we close our eyes really tight in the hopes that we can forever imprint that memory in our minds, as if we just uploaded it for later.

I had one tonight.  It was a mild night in Five Points, with the sun starting to disappear behind the houses, and the boys decided to take their brand new bikes out for a spin.  I leashed up the dogs and inevitably fell behind them.  As they drove, I saw their heads spin around to talk to eachother, the almost-seven-year-old and the almost-….-year-old wheeling down the street. 

They looked so much alike at that point, and I stayed behind them just to watch.  Eventually, though.. with them having wheels and me waddling with my four month pregnant self.. they disappeared out of view.
