Maybe to show the amount of years these two have been side-by-side?
Maybe the amount of smiles he’ll give me for our Christmas pictures? That’s ONLY four smiles.
Maybe the number of days he typically makes it to school each week?
Maybe the number of days of school he has until they take TEN DAYS off for Thanksgiving vacation (really, private school, with the crazy vacations?)
Maybe for the number of times he hugs me and tells me he loves me every day?
I’ll chose the last one, since Sam’s emotion and passion are just two of my favorite things about him.
