Far Away

Far Away

Sometimes I look at her and I can't belive that she's growing so fast! Roxy will be 4 in July and it seems as if I was just swaddling her a week ago!

Roxy graduated from her first year at preschool on Monday. I saw her standing up on that stage with the other kids and realized just how tall my little girl is getting. At this point I think that she's already more than half my height...scary, huh? Then I as doing the math...when my baby is 18 I'll be 39!!! Thirty-nine! That doesn't seem possible when I'm only 25 right now...but that is only a short 14 years from now.

Then it makes me think of all the things that we'll be going through together in the next 14 years...so much growing up in such a short time. Fourteen years just doesn't seem that far away anymore. It's funny how time just seems to fly by the older you get. I just hope to goodness that my little girl isn't anything like me as a teenager...if so, we'll all be needing to find a God to pray to!
