Just like that...
12 years ago I comforted him with a hug ... he was leaving me and he was afraid.
Today he comforts me with a hug...he was leaving me and I was afraid.
I've never felt such a mixture of sadness and pride. My emotions are so close to the surface these days and it's not unusual for me to laugh and cry in the same breath.
I'm so very proud, I want to freeze time, to slow this train down. I started applying the brakes in August - I can't remember a year passing so quickly in my life.
Crying with my Band Of Mothers this morning as our kids head out the door for their last day of high school. It still seems impossible..
