My how time flies

It is Christmas Eve 2009 and my youngest turns 14 today. HAPPY BIRTHDAY BABY BOY - of course he's not really a baby any more..........

No matter what we do, no matter how hard we try these little bear cubs have the audacity to grow up. They don't bother checking with you to make sure it's OK with you that they get older, more independent, think for themselves, make their own decisions about what's right or wrong......One day you are in the hospital cuddling them in your arms, and the next thing you know, they are almost as tall as you are and capable of remembering EVERYTHING you say, except how to clean their room or do their homework.

Motherhood, wouldn't take nothin' for THIS journey.

Peace!!
