Growing up

It's so strange watching my daughter become a full fledged grown up. She's been spending this break from college clearing out & organizing her room at home because she say's it's going to be the new guest room in our house. She is correct, of course, as one of my siblings has moved into my house and is in what used to be our old guest room. My girl is putting a great deal of her childhood into bags & boxes, deciding what is really of sentimental value vs. old crap that's been forgotten about. I'm having to do my own adjustment to her newest phase of life. I had being a daddy to a child down fairly well, even given the curveballs life keeps throwing at us but this is making me a little sad. My little girl is becoming my little girl who is an adult.

We may grow up but never stop needing our dads. This is a sweet post 馃

Hugs that you get through this and can smile and not weep.

It's rough, being a mom of 3 babies I know I have a long time before I have to go through that. This past week has been a bit of an emotional mess for me as a mom, as I transitioned my daughter out of her crib and into her own room with a big girl bed and moved the boys into their shared room. The baby has been in my room since he has been born & now he is in a crib and with his brother. This is the first time since I started having babies6 years ago that there is not a child in my room and it's a major emotional adjustment for me as a mom.

Hugs dad.

It wont be too long before she starts introducing Grand children, who you get to spoil in a way you never could your own as a responsible parent. Thats fun...馃樂

You each enter a phase a new phase of life, stretching your wings, being careful of the obstacles of life ahead
