Time goes fast

Our oldest son Ty is now 22 years old and is such a great young man. I was thinking of him and all the fun times we had when he was running around the house hipper in his Batman cape. He loved Ninja Turtles, and always made us laugh. He always wanted to do fun things and to be with his Mommy.( trying to wipe away my tears) It is very hard to let him move on but at the same time being so happy for him as he makes good choices in life. He has such a big heart and loves his family deeply. I have great memories of going to the park. Coaching his Soccer teams and Baseball teams. Being outside and playing with our dog. Teaching him how to swim. Saying our Prayers together. "Hey mommy will you play with me" How I would love to here that little voice one more time. Killing spiders for him. Letting him sleep with us because he had a bad dream. Holding him because he wanted to cuddle. Kissing his owies, making them better. Watching him sleep when he was sick. Taking a look at him so I can always remember that moment. Thanking my Heavenly Father every day for having him in my life..

Now we are in a new chapter in life. Making new memories that will last a life time. As I think back to the days of being frustrated. I am so happy we did not have many of those. Loving life and being a mom was my best times.

I love you son with all of my heart!

That is such a sweet post! It is a good reminder for me to slow down and enjoy myself more.
P.S. Your hair looked great straightened on Sunday. What a foxy lady!

Thank you! People say I look way different when my hair is straight. My own sister inlaw did not recognize me.
