Cha-cha-changes!

.

Yesterday the baby got her driver's license and today it's her 19th birthday. Wasn't it only yesterday that she was asking for crayons and pencils? And today, she's asking for the car keys! Yikes! When did that happen? When did we both grow up?

.

Well, okay. SHE grew up ... and I just grew old! Cha-cha-changes!


.
Next week, Little Baby goes back to Newfoundland for her 2nd year of nursing school. But Middle Baby came home yesterday from the BIG city to stay.
Cha-cha-changes! She's going to attend college this year (and just generally complain about my acting like her mother!) But I'm so happy to have her home again.

.

AND my 2 Foreign Babies will arrive next week as well. Cha-cha-changes! (So, I have to stop skiving off and become a responsible mother again. Cha-cha-changes!)

.

Yes, change is exciting and often wonderful .... but also difficult. Do I even remember where the freezer is and how to use the electric frying pan? It's been a while!!

You've got BIG changes now and next week, but they all sound fun and from the photos, they are all BEAUTIFUL!! You can do it, and when you don't want to you can always call for "carry-out"!

How exciting to have all those wonderful changes coming to your home. Life will surely be different. Our daughter and 11 month old son are coming on Tuesday for 9 days and her husband comes the following Sunday. Now that will be change for me. I'm getting a little worried about all the noise and commotion in our quiet home. I can't wait to hold that little fella though as it's been 7 months!! Enjoy your children. Blessings, Pamela

Sounds like you'll be busy with all the kids now. Must be fun to get a new group of students each year. Have fun!
