What day will you think of as you lay dying? Many many happy moments, much to be grateful for, but a whole happy day? I only have a few. And meeting Baby Boy was definitely one of them.

He was delicious.
Then he got bigger.

I made sure he held my hand when we crossed the street and I called him my Baby Boy. In public.
And then he got even bigger.

I could no longer insist on him holding my hand as we crossed the street and I was not allowed to call him anything except his name.
Now he's 18.

I call him B.B. and even if I can't hold
his hand, I still make sure
my hand is on his shoulder as we jay-walk our way back from a movie.
