My baby is 24!
Woman in the Middle | February 1, 2014On January 30th Eldest Daughter turned 24. I don’t even know what to say about that. Because, how could she be 24? My mind thinks I am just 24! My mind can not get its head around the fact that it is attached to a body that gave birth to a human being that is 24 years old!
I got engaged on my 24th birthday and less than 6 months later walked down the aisle with Hubby. What was I thinking? I was so young!!! Obviously something worked since we have been married over 27 years. But still, 24…..
Raising children is not easy. But that being said, Eldest has given us more wonderful, sweet, funny, delightful moments than she has ever given us sour ones, and we can’t imagine life without her. I worry about her every day, because that is my job. I look forward to seeing what life brings her. I hope it is a world of happiness and peace. I hope she finds a true love, I hope she has children as wonderful as she is and was, and I hope she continues to make me laugh, because she is so good at it.
But I still can’t believe my fairy princess of a daughter, the little girl who thought all fancy buildings were castles, is 24. I think I am going to take a nap with a cold compress on my forehead!
Dimples and curls, what’s not to love?
