Three Weeks Left

Today i realized that in three weeks i will be going back to work.....and my kids will be going back to school.....i also realized that i am getting old. My oldest stepson who has been in my life since he was eight is going to be a Senior in High School. This is not possible since i was just a Senior myself yesterday.....time flies so fast and it makes me realize how much the next ten months will be a challenge for us. Not only is he 17 and driving and has a girlfriend, but the changes will be hard as well. Not only do Kevin and i have to start letting him go but the independence is killing me.....yes if you know me i am a control freak and i don't adapt to change well.....i still want him to be the eight year old that use to just stand in my bathroom and ask why i am putting on makeup all the time....he would then be the one to tell me i was beautiful without it...i miss the days of innocence and going to the movies and the mall and holding hands and just talking to him about cartoons. Now it is about cars, girls and when he is going to move out. I guess i should just be blessed that he still talks to me and i am grateful that even when i dont think he is going to tell me everything he does. I am going to need all the prayer i can get these next ten months. For June 3rd will be here before Kevin and I know it and the little boy that has graced our hearts for years will be the man that will go out into the world and amaze us all.
