The other day, I was cleaning out the jacket closet, and I came across this.
But, this wasn't like any other jacket that didn't fit my kids anymore, it was one that I bought for my oldest son when he was around 2 years old. I was obsessed with the Disney Store!
It probably sounds corny, but I started reminiscing on how little he was and how he used to look when he wore it. It seemed like it was just yesterday, and not 11 1/2 years ago. I literally was tearing up when I was holding it, and all my kids were like, "Are you crying???????" I even made a joke to my son about him putting it on just for fun! LOL. But, it also showed me HOW FAST these (almost) 12 years flew by. He'll be 14 in July, and in just four years, he will officially be an adult (sigh).

Here is he is, wearing the jacket when he was around 2 1/2 years old! And look at Miranda..so little, and now she's all grown up! I will never give this jacket away.
How about you? Is there anything that you have that you hold near and dear to your heart?
