I think for the first time, I realize I’m old!
My god-brother AKA My Child is 14 today! Seems like just yesterday he was learning to walk and now he’s getting ready to start high school in the fall. I remember when he would crawl into my bed to “read” the Sunday paper with me and now he’s an almost grown man with a deepening voice.
Where was I???
My niece is 16. She’s thinking about colleges and proms. Wasn’t it just yesterday that I went to prom. Didn’t I start college yesterday? Wait, prom was 14 years ago and I graduated college 10 years ago.
Where was I???
I’m going to a cotillion tonight. The young woman we’re supporting tonight is a beautiful young woman who happens to also be my god-mother’s granddaughter. Wasn’t my own cotillion not too long ago. Oh wait, that was 1991.
Where was I???
I think I need to slow down so I don’t miss so much of the world. Life’s short!
Ohhhhhh you’re not getting old. You just have great memories and life is florishing (did I spell that right). You can add their memories to yours.
