and then this happened

Tim's senior pictures--the photographer is an old friend of Heidi's and she's done the pictures for all the younger kids. She's funny and gentle, does a great job, has honestly taken some of my very favorite pictures of my kids.

He was surprised by this. "No, no pictures of any kind."  But the he realized it is a rite of passage, an expectation for senior year. He shaved, combed his pandemic mop of hair back off his face and put on a shirt and tie, brought his letter jacket.

I was proud of how handsome and how sweet.

On the ride home, we spotted Dan in his front yard and stopped to say hi. The kids were comically happy to see Tim and exchange sass in the front yard.

Can't wait to see the pictures.

Love, MOM
