Not so long ago....just yesterday, or was it last week....certainly it couldn't have been a whole month ago... Well, just the other day I worried and fretted about my baby going off to kindergarten. Tomorrow he starts the 9th grade. I don't understand how this happened.
But I hope through all the teenage struggles he understands how very proud I am that he is who he is.... and that he is and always will be.... my baby
“A first child is your own best foot forward, and how you do cheer those little feet as they strike out. You examine every turn of flesh for precocity, and crow it to the world. But the last one: the baby who trails his scent like a flag of surrender through your life when there will be no more coming after--oh, that' s love by a different name.”
~ Barbara Kingsolver
