Sixteen years ago today I was 9 days past my due date and just waiting and waiting and… Today, I’m planning a Sweet 16 birthday party for my daughter this Friday. Co-ed which scares the heck out of me. I have to reach back into my own long ago memories and remind myself what it was like to be a teen.
As the “Sunrise, Sunset” song plays in my head, I look at the moments firmly imprinted on my mind of those every day, ordinary things that somehow stood out. And I revisit that day, that moment, that tear, that smile, and wonder how time could pass so quickly.
I’m blessed to have a smart, truly beautiful daughter who is a well balanced, confident, typical teenager. As much as I sometimes wonder if I was/am a good mom, by all accounts when I look at her I have my answer.
So, go hug your children today, whatever age, because they make life wonderful, don’t they?
