Seems like just yesterday that we used to go around and around the block, her on her trike picking up all kinds of treasures and putting them in her basket. Now she's a young adult, driving and getting ready for that big world out there. Hope I taught her well...
She has grown into a beautiful young lady & am so proud of who she is. She'll always be my baby girl...

Darlene,
Hon I know how you feel. It's hard to believe that my Ryan would have been 21 this year.
It's even harder to imagine that Daniel will be 13 this year.
The time sure has passed quickly, It seems only yesterday I brought each of my babies home from the hospital and was the center of their lives, you know back when they needed me! lol
Now, they each have their own thing to do. DS says "mom, I have places to go and people to meet" yeah right! But I guess you have to let them go so they can live just like we did.
Hon, I'm sure you did a GREAT job at teaching her. Oh how I feel your pain. But look on the brighter side, one day she'll be saying the same thing.
I think it's wonderful how we enstill our values in our kids.
Yes Darlene, Time flies, and our babies grow up and then continue the big circle of life and become parents of their own. It is an awesome feeling to watch your kids grow and make good life choices. Congratulations, sounds like you've done a fine job.

It does fly by, one minute we are the young adult starting our families and standing at the door of the big world and the next we are watching our children become the young adult.
