Where has the time gone?

At 12:56 tomorrow......she will turn 23.....and I am not quite sure how or when that happened.  She took her time in arriving....she wasn't going to let some little matter of a due date tell her what to do...and she is still.....in her own way....very much her own person.

"I stood up for my own head and so did my heart

and we are coming to terms with ourselves.

Shaking hands, saying ”let’s make this work

for we have places to go

and people to see

and we will need each other”

So I have hope

in who I am becoming.

It’s July

and I have hope in who I am becoming.”
