its hardest being the oldest

"Mom, it's hard being the oldest", said Judson (our oldest of 4) as he leaned in for a hug.

me,  "I know", giving him a big squeeze.
I was the oldest too....and I remember the frustrations of it well.

simple and true.
I wish I could make being the oldest easier.  I try.  I wish I was able to give you all my attention and not be so distracted.

Tonight we are heading into the art studio to have some alone time together.  I hope that will help.
I love you, my sweet (oldest) boy.
