Between birth and one year of age, my kids:
Rolled over, crawled, pulled up and walked by 9 months
Ate solid food
Said all family names
Eventually spoke in choppy sentences
Followed book pages with their eyes and hands
Always toddled toward Mama and Dada.
Between 16 and 17 years of age, two of my three kids:
Got their driving permit
Secured a job
Began independently driving a moving vehicle (a.k.a. license)
Brought home a significant other
Starting dating
Attended high school parties and dances
Began walking a little farther away from Mama and Dada….
How do you feel about the changes?

Every season of parenting is a good one, but more time spent out of the nest is a difficult adjustment for the Mama duck… ❤
