my little big girl

happilysituatedmaggieSo here’s the truth:

My little baby girl is not so little anymore.  Actually she’s quite grown up all of the sudden and I’m feeling kinda stunned.  She’s lovely and kind and thoughtful.  She’s a stinker and likes to have her own way.  She’s modest and concerned about bigger things than the typical teenage girl stuff.

I have friends who remember her as a baby, and friends who have come to know her as the young woman she is now. And friends, let me just tell you, my momma heart is hurting a bit.  She’s big and responsible and a few years from driving a car and I don’t like it because I can’t remember all the moments that have gone by to get us to today.

But here we are and I’m going try harder to see her beauty, her heart, her smile and love her minute by minute.

Oh my darling girl.  Please stop growing up so fast.
