It’s been a really quick summer. Too quick, in fact. Just
two short months ago, 17 graduated high school. And in just 18 short days, I’ll
be dropping her off at college. What the hell, time? Why are you going by so
fast? Remember when I was in labor with her and you moved so damn slowly? I
remember that, and I remember thinking “Oh
God this is taking forever!!” Well, if I could go back and change that, I
would. If I could make the time stand still, I would. But I can’t, and in just
18 days, life as we know it will change forever....
Read the rest of this post at Mamalode, where I'm talking about dropping 17 off at college and trying to keep it together.
Beautiful, that was. I love that she in a lot of ways is still your little girl. I also have never heard the term "you can go pound sand," in an unrelated note.
ReplyDeleteI loved this on Mamalode. So beautifully written and poignant. I remember feeling like this way when I sent my oldest daughter off to college.
