GROWING UP
The 5th grade breakfast was today…
proving time can be sad as well as cruel.
Wasn’t it only yesterday…when they were starting school?
Wasn’t it only yesterday they were a much smaller size?
How could they have grown up…right before our eyes?
We’ve enjoyed our moments together…we’ve taken pleasure in the climb…
How can life move in slow motion…and fast speed at the same time?
It’s not that we don’t want them to grow up…to be kinder, smarter…stronger
It’s just we hoped their growing up…would take a little longer….
But we take solace in our sadness because there is something we all know…
They will always be our babies…no matter how they grow.
Yes, we take solace knowing we will always see them through a parent’s loving eyes
and they will always be our babies…no matter how time flies…
