One week left of school, eating lunch with my 9-yr old on field day.
One of the class helper moms says “are you Adam’s mom?” I say yep, we chit chat a bit and then it’s “nice to meet you”s.
I’m not much of a helper or volunteer. I don’t go in and socialize and share recipes and sewing patterns. Not my thing. I love my kid, but not my thing.
The result is that every year at some end of the year event I’m meeting other parents for the first time.
Yep. I’m that mom. And I’m ok with that.
Today’s the day.
High School Graduation.
I’ve already teared up twice today. I stayed up stupid late last night browsing through the pictures I selected for the slide show. I stupidly thought…why don’t I just do an iPhoto slideshow real quick? Sat at my table, at 2am, crying.
I know it’s cliche, but good God, it happened so fast.
I vividly remember sitting on our couch, holding the month-old preemie in my arms, staring down at her sweet little face, her eyes looking right into mine. At that moment, I thought to myself, “One day this little person will be grown, will be graduating high school, and I’ll look into these same eyes and see a woman, and it will have gone by in a flash.” True story.
And here we are. My God, where did it go.
Crying again. That’s three. Dammit.
