Ten Times Two

Peter turned 20 in December and I still can't quite wrap my brain around it.

He got missionary things for his birthday like scriptures and the black suit he's wearing in the picture below. A benefit to him being on a service mission is that we got to celebrate with him. Sadly, he was sick on his birthday and it was pretty low-key, but we still made (and purchased) his favorite foods and he opened gifts.

I don't think I've been stunned by any other birthdays, but two decades of parenthood doesn't seem quite possible. I keep thinking that I have three teenagers at home, but I don't, I only have two. Peter is not a teenager anymore.

Time is weird.

Yes, it's the weirdest to start subtracting teenagers! That did not occur to me until it started happening. Happy birthday to Peter!
