One more day


  It is only one more day until graduation. It seems like life is full of “one more days”. One more day until the baby comes, one more day until school starts, one more day until Christmas break, one more day until vacation, one more day until summer, one more day of winter, one more day until marriage, one more day with the person you love. Do we view these “one more days” as an ending or a new beginning? I would like to think this “one more day” is just the beginning. It is the beginning of a new adventure for my son.

 Oldest son has reached another milestone in his life. There have been so many: sleeping through the night, walking, starting preschool, starting kindergarten, first lost tooth, reaching the teen years, and driving are among the few. They have all brought their own unique challenges and joy, but the emotions remain the same. Happy because they are growing up, but sad because your baby is not a baby anymore. So as we prepare this summer to send oldest son off to college, be patient with me. I am so happy he has worked hard to be able to achieve this goal, but sad because my baby is leaving the nest.

 

Hugs!
