'All of a sudden, my snuggly kid has become a tweenager. And I was completely not ready for it.'
It started as a coping mechanism, one my husband and I were both fine with because we could see his anxiety creep up at night. His younger brother will gladly sleep in his own bed, but inevitably makes his way to ours in the middle of the night. It was comforting for all of us to be close these last few years.
Friday, October 28th: We all sleep in bed together. Saturday, October 29th: My 9-year-old asks me to sleep in his bed with him that night. Fine. After all, his mattress is softer than mine and I’m happy to oblige a snuggle. Sunday, October 30th: He puts himself to sleep in his own room. Last night, and this could be the long night of running around trick or treating talking, he did the same.This morning, he closed the bathroom door when he brushed his teeth.
All of a sudden I saw a flash forward to five or six years from now, when he’s a full-blown teenager and probably has terrible acne and permanently smells like his just-practiced-in soccer shin guards. There he is, still primping his hair in the mirror before heading to school in his sweatshirt and shorts. Time is fleeting.
