He's eight today. Eight! I have shoes younger than him!

What were you doing eight years ago today? I remember what I was doing: having my world redefined by nine pounds of boy.

Let's list some examples that show just how long eight years really is.

Eight years is:

  • Thirty-two seasons of The Anna Nicole Smith show
  • Eight World Series without the Red Sox
  • Two terms of President Clinton
  • Over $50 million in steam-cleaning fees for the White House during the above
  • About long enough to start considering an Air Supply reunion
  • 12 Jennifer Lopez marriages
  • Still not enough time for me to finish college
