When this picture was taken, my son was 7. It's been 2 years, 8 months and 5 days since Brytin has seen his best good California friend.
Tomorrow, the day he changes from a single-digit age to a double-digit age, he will mark the day with his favorite super saiyan beginning a week-long adventure in Louisville. Brytin has no idea that is how he will spend his evening - or the next week.
His morning will be the same as every other birthday I have celebrated with him - decorations, cinnamon rolls, and a picture in front of his closet door.
But by 6 pm, the anniversary of his first decade of life will become a day a he will never forget.
