I've Got Sunshine....

Today was the first sunny day in a while 
and I thought that going outside in the backyard would be nice.
I let the girls run around while I was practicing one foot balances
and out of nowhere a little boy went running down the path by my house...

There is a playground behind out house here.
I remember sitting outside with James once we moved here 
and talking about how excited we would be to push Bug around in his stroller on walks
have him run around that park
playing lava monster and tag and whatever other game he wanted to play
learning how to ride his trike on that path 
To have picnics and bbqs there.
To do family things...

And of course, after seeing that little boy run down the path
I got teary eyed...

I dont know what saddened me more...
The fact that none of this I will ever experience with Bug 
or the fact that this little boy's mother was nowhere in sight...

I would do anything to have had time with my Bug
to see him grow
to see him play on that jungle gym

I hate seeing other people take moments like this for granted...

As it started getting darker and colder the little boy finally ran off (and hopefully home) 

I went and sat on that jungle gym...
and
cried.
