I don't know why I am feeling so nostalgic lately. Maybe it's because my oldest just went to her first prom (pics later) and my "baby" just got accepted to the Magnet Highschool she wanted. While we are all very excited for these milestones, I can't help but wonder where my babies went. Wasn't it just yesterday I was chasing after them, and here I am still wishing they would slow down! Where does the time go?
We never really listen when people tell us, "Enjoy them now, b/c they grow up so fast." While they are telling us this, we are thinking, "Yeah, right. I wish they would grow up so I could get some sleep, or not have to change another diaper, or if they could just wipe their own bottom, and the list goes on. Well something happens while we are wishing for "this phase to pass". They do grow up, and sometimes, just sometimes you wish you could go back; if only for a moment!
Well here are some pics from Lauren's big night. I thought she looked beautiful! Mike was so quiet when he came home and I was helping her get ready. He walked in and just sat on her bed and was so quiet! He was probably wondering "where all the time went", as well!
Well to make for a happy occasion, let's have a contest! I want to hear your "Prom Stories" I want the funny, the sad, the whatever.... E-mail them to info@sweetteaonline.com by midnight on Saturday. We'll post the winning story on the blog, and send ya out some "goodies".
Ya'll have a wonderful day!
