In line...

Sawyer and I saw "Storks" on Saturday.
It was great--we highly recommend.
When we entered the lobby,
he saw the huge cardboard cut-out advertising "Trolls", and said,
"Oh, let's get a picture, Emmy, but after the movie."
Sure enough, when we were leaving the theatre lobby,
he remembered and eagerly popped himself behind the cut-out
and smiled real big.
(He had told me beforehand that he would be sure
to make his eyes sparkle like the babies' eyes in "Storks".)
So, here's the deal.
I know the day will come, and sooner than later,
when he will not even see the cardboard cut-out in the lobby,
and he will definitely not want a silly picture of himself behind it.
I cherish these moments when he still does...
and am ever the more grateful for the little guy who's waiting in line
for his turn at movie-time with Emmy.
(See you at the movies, Weston!)
