I don't see why he won't just quit growing up

Call it selfish or whatever you want, but I want this boy to stop growing up. I'd be perfectly happy if he stayed this age forever. Although, as each day passes, he does get a little sassier and a little smarter and a little wittier. The other day, all of the kids were piled in the van driving home from some various outing and he saw a person pulled over by the police on the side of the road. He commented, "I don't see why people are always trying to talk their self out of the handcuffs." I am so, so, so glad to be near him again.
