Happy Birthday?

I can't believe it....my eldest son is 18 years old, today.

Celebrating the birthdays and ticking away the years was all fine and well when the children are wee, but once they become young adults, the omnipresent passage of time can be.....well....oppressive.

Let's just say, I can't celebrate DES' 18th birthday with too much jubilation.

When I turned 30, I didn't care. When I turned 40, I just shrugged. But now that my son is turning 18.....I feel old. I cannot believe it.
