18 years ago...

Oh my, 18 years ago, the most adorable little brown eyed baby boy entered my life! It was a very long day, but at 10:00pm he arrived, screaming his little head off! It was love at first sight!!! How have the years went by so fast??? Just yesterday he was dressed up in his cape saving the world as Super Grover... Or was he solving a mystery at his 13th birthday party, or maybe he was graduating from high school ... Sometimes I would like to just go back for a day and spend it playing with my little man again. Oh the nostalgia... so bittersweet... My baby has become a man, a very fine, caring, compassionate, handsome, christian man none the less. I look in his eyes and can still see my little boy sometimes... other times he seems light years away. I never knew being a mommy would be so hard. But it is so very hard to let them go... even though you know you have worked for years to help get them to this very moment in time. Happy Birthday Xan, I am so very proud of you!!!
