Your pride, your grief at your childen growing and someday leaving, your love, your enjoyment of your children is flowing through your writing.

Isn't it interesting how having a baby can push a woman the rest of the way into adulthood? It happened to me too! We are the lucky ones! We are young enough to enjoy them when they are grown up too! And young enough to remember what it is like to be that age.
