Geez...I've been so emotional lately! Really struggling with depression these last few weeks because
of all my medical crap. And today in church I was almost in tears
watching all the little kids process to bring flowers to the Blessed
Mother (it's a Catholic thing). The year my daughter made communion,
she was asked to crown the BM, and that's all I could think of today
in church! Maybe I was just missing her because she's been gone this
weekend for a tournament, but I think it has more to do with the fact
that my babies aren't babies anymore. DD is a teenager (just barely
at 13, but definitely if you're judging on attitude!) and going into
high school in just a few short months. And DS, who is my baby of
babies, is going into middle school next year. I'm having a real
hard time with them growing up. And with both of them moving up in
schools at the same time...seems like too much for this mama to
handle.
Is this normal? What am I going to do when they start
leaving for college? I'm already an emotional wreck! Somebody
please tell me this will get better. They're only 13 and 10 for
goodness sakes!
