I AM A LITTLE SAD TODAY!!
Initial consult 7/31/08 Surgery date 10/9/08
When they are little it seems they cling to us, but once they take their first step, it begins a life time of steps away from us. I threw myself on my bed and cried for a month when my son graduated from High School and went off to OSU. I was tramatized! I recovered but only to have my daughter come right behind him and leave, followed by the last two girls....Each step that each took away from me, broke my heart. I still find it hard to cope with at times....I still miss my babies! My oldest just turned 42 in Feb and lives in CA., and my baby will turn 32 in May. They never get to old to be missed and loved. My oldest grandbaby just turned 17 and now I feel like a REALLY old woman!! Each step they take is hard.
I with I could say it get's easier, but it doesn't. I too am so thankful that the steps I took may allow me more time to spend with my kids and grandkids. I will just say make each day count as those are your treasures!

I can look back and say I helped him become what he is today. he may be in a grown up male body but to me he will always be that little 6 year old boy wearing a tee shirt around his head being a ninja....crazy about teenage mutant ninja turtles claiming pizza ia part of the food group.
