One minute you’re taking him out for babycinos, th One minute you’re taking him out for babycinos, the next you’re on the dance floor at his 21st. Flynn, the baby of our family, is all grown up. 

What a privilege it is to get to watch your kids become their own person and make their way in the world. I couldn’t be more proud of the caring, kind and resilient young man he’s become and can’t wait to see where life takes him.
