My baby graduated from high school - That was a bittersweet time! She breezed through it like a pro, but Mom on the other hand, didn't deal with it as well. It was overwhelming to realize how many people loved her! I've always known I LOVED her, and assumed other people did too, but to actually realize it was humbling.
My baby went on Sr. trip - FOR AN ENTIRE WEEK! :( That left Mom home, alone, to wallow in her sadness. It was a long, stressful, prayer filled week, but we made it. Once again, she breezed right through it, but Mom didn't manage so well.
My baby started college - This is where the tables turned...(Ha! Vengeance is MINE!) My baby is getting a tiny, and I do mean tiny, taste of what real life is all about. That first day, she got ready and she was so prepared for college life! She was looking good, and ready to conquer the world! When she called me after class, I had to smile and giggle to myself. She didn't think she was going to like this "college" thing. "Mother, it so different than high school!" Just exactly what "Mother" has been trying to tell her for years now! But, she is adjusting and I think going this summer will help her to ease into the transition and she'll, once again, know everything by the time Fall classes start!
