All Growed Up

My baby is growing up. They told me it would go fast. I didn’t believe them. But, it’s true. It goes fast. Faster than I could have ever imagined. And tonight, as I came home to an empty place, little signs of her everywhere, but knowing that she is in her own world, moving on, grown up, in love, so very happy… I had this sad-happy-sad moment and then this song began playing on repeat in my head. It comes from her favorite musical, “Addams Family,” and warms my heart that it came to me through her. Miss Kaitlyn has lit up the world in ways I cannot explain and I am so grateful that *I* got to be the one to witness her and get to do that still. And… truth… I AM completely happy and a tiny bit… sad…
