Growing Up

I have worked hard to raise my children to become independent individuals who will contribute to society. But now I wish they would stay small and need me and think I am the most beautiful and smart person they know.

Some day they will move away (hopefully on good terms). It will be with joy and sorrow that I say good bye. I will miss them very much and probably call often to check on them.

What I really want though is for them not to forget about me.

They will never forget you, and neither will those of us who are lucky to have you in our lives.
