This week has been interesting. I have been thinking about Tyler's 16th birthday and remembering him as an infant, frog legs and all! This Sunday will be his last as a "teacher" at church and as quorum president and he is bittersweet. In just a couple of weeks he will be saying the sacrement prayer and very shortly will be driving himself to work and ball practice this summer. It is all spinning around me, happening too fast.
Mikayla left for a school overnight (outdoor ed) today and I cried. She is my baby and has always stayed close by and never been one to go to sleep overs etc... I expected her to be nervous and doubtful about going. Not the case. Instead she energetically prepared this weekend, packed last night and informed me that it was all going to be ok and not to worry, it was just one night. Then she ran off with her friends to board the bus. This is the same little girl that insisted she NEVER wanted to grow up...again all happening too fast.
Paul and Tyler were being very "male" in the car tonight and grossing me out. Andy reached over the seat and put his hand on my shoulder and said " Sorry Mom, they should know better than to say that in fromt of you". This is the kid that used to take great pride in grossing me out, not more than 6 months ago.
Paul and I were just talking about how our upcoming weekend in Seattle will signify 21 years together - wow...
Time flies...when you are having fun and making memories.
