Time Goes Marching On

This entry is for all you ladies out there, especially you mothers of daughters, because you will understand my feelings at this moment.

The torch of womanhood passed to my daughter yesterday evening.

I don't have any children but I do remember that time vividly with my mom, her words and comfort.  She most likely will never forget it either.

They grow up so fast don't they? With the special bond you share with Eler Beth it is definitely a momentous occasion. (Hugs) Indigo

I remember, still today, my feelings at that age.  Hugs to Mom and daughter.  It is quite a 'start' to realize your little one is so grown up.  :)

Oh I am so sorry.  LOL .... I hated when the torch came along....but it is also a good thing, and more good than bad.  Though I'd like to take my torch and wing it right out the window.  LOL.  Ya just can't climb trees so easily anymore.  Or be a carefree tomboy.  Sigh.  Hugs,
