Letting go
It is hard to let go of control. However, Taylor is growing up and I must do it. This morning, she came downstairs, after getting herself ready for school, and I said, "Would you like me to fix your hair a little?" She gave me a horrified look. No - she did not want me to fix anything! She thought she did a fantastic job. And, really, she did. It was just a little messier looking than I would have liked. However, I know I must let her grow up, make her own choices and do her own thing. I can't always do everything for her, yet it is so hard not to. I am not ready to not be needed. I know she is only 7, but I feel like time is slipping away so quickly. Does anyone else ever have these thoughts, or is it just me?

I always wonder how far away that day is for me as well. I know it is coming and that I might not be to apt to letting go on that one!
It is strange to think of Taylor as that old, every time I see her it boggles my mind!
time is flying Taylor will be baptized in six month wow can you believe it I remember your baptism and it seems just like a little while ago but it was 21 years ago about.
I agree - they grow up too quickly!
