My default pic is one of me and my baby taken four years ago at Picture People in the Southlake Mall in what was then Merrillville and is now Hobart, IN. It's one of my favorites. Yes, we were on the floor for about 40 minutes posing while mall-goers peeked in, but it was fun and I was very happy with the end result.
I need to get more pictures taken of me and the boy before he's too embarrassed to be seen with me in public. He turned 9 this week and I am not allowed to kiss him in public anymore. He has informed me that he's growing his hair out so he can style it in that white boy quasi-mohawk.
It was about the time that picture was taken that I called him ""my baby"" and he told me that he wasn't a baby he was a big boy. Silly me. I asked him, ""What did you do with my baby?"" With a most sincere and exasperated sigh he answered, ""I was your baby, but I growed!"" That's one of our running jokes. It made me a little sad a week later when he started saying ""grew"", but he just keeps growing.
