Growing Independence

Today as the bus drew to a stop at the end of the driveway, Ellie turned to me, pointed to the porch and said, "Go back to the house, Mommy!"

She proceded to walk to the bus ahead of me, refuse the help of the bus attendant and march up the steps of the bus by herself.

She's growing up. Gulp.

Of course we raise our kids to be independant, but it is hard to let them be! Samuel has been doing the same thing to me. Even if I want his independance, it still hurts a bit to watch your baby grow up. You're are an amazing mother Cydil, this just proves you are doing a good job! Take it as God's affirmation.
