Our "oldest" little girl is growing up. She is 18 now. She has graduated from high school, working her way through college and now she has decided it is time to fly the coop and move out. Kinda, bittersweet. I knew it would come one day.
At times we have even had "discussions" about it especially when the "discussions" are when we are butting heads over her car insurance payment that is due OR her not cleaning up after her self OR her nagging me about something (or vice versa however I am the
mom so I get to nag, right?)

Her and her BFF
She found a cute little apt not too far down the street. I know she is close by but it will not be the same, that's for sure.
Now what are we going to do with all the extra space (just kidding).
Even if she "thinks" that we won't miss her, my sweet babe we will miss you! (and I am sure she will miss us too; I hope)
Awww. This makes me think of how one day I'll face this with my Kiddo. :(
ReplyDeleteIt's good that you found a place not too far away. Indepence for her and security for you. :)
I don't want that day to come for me :( And I thought time was flying to quickly for my son and hes just almost 3
ReplyDeleteShe's beautiful and I FEAR this day with all my being, I know it will come but loved seeing you post all the pictures of the milestones. SO much greatness is still to come!
