Growing up is hard

For the last few months Braden has been having a hard time with the concept of growing up. He tells us a lot that he wants to stay little forever so that he never has to leave us, although he does understand that he is, in fact, going to grow up. This is a conversation that we had about this a bit ago.

B: Mama, I am not growing up, you know.
Me: Honey, of course you are. Look how big and strong you are getting! Pretty soon you are going to turn 5!
B: But, when I turn 5 I will still be little.
Me: Yep, and then someday you will be big like daddy and that is okay.
B: No it’s not! You will be sad if I get big and have to move away! (crying begins)
Me: It’s okay, sweetie. All kids get big! Even when you grow up and move into your own house we will still be best friends and spend a lot of time together, so I will be okay.
B: (through his tears) But, I won’t be okay without you!
Me: *commence waterworks*
