Saturday afternoon, I opened my Instagram feed -- and there at the top of the page was a video of LGN with his dad (our Older Nephew --mom was obviously holding the phone/camera), modelling a Buzz Lightyear suit -- his Halloween costume -- with a HUGE smile on his face (matched only by his proud dad's)! while the dog romped around him and Randy Newman's song, "You've Got a Friend in Me" played. :)
He was a picture of pure delight and joy -- just SO sweet and beautiful.
Reader, I lost it. I sobbed.
I still get weepy whenever I go back to look at it.
Just one of those grief-y moments that sneaks up on you now & then....
(I took screenshots. One of them is now my cellphone wallpaper. ;) )(Not the one below, lol.)

Oh, Loribeth, I abide with you... It's the Halloween costume pictures that are the hardest for me out of everything else. <3 <3 <3
