freckle face

i counted fifty freckles on ethan's face the other day. they're all from this summer, i know because a few months i was trying to scrub one off when i realized what it was and the fact that it hadn't been there the day before. that day i counted only eight. he's changing so much even from week to week. rich has a lot of freckles which means, i'm sure ethan will have a lot, which is fine, great even, i love a little freckly faced boy. it's so all-american little boy so i don't mind it one bit. it's the changing thing that's getting to me. he's just getting so big, and as cute as he is, as much as i just adore every little inch of him, it's just so hard to say good bye to the baby, especially when you know he's your last.
