Felt a little like a splurge, but really, buying Misaki a new backpack last night in advance of her first ever without Mama field trip was necessary. 'Cause whether I like it or not, she's big now and she can (has to?!) carry her own stuff.
Sometimes I wish they didn't need me so much and other times I feel desperately sad that they seem to already not need me any more.
God can handle these contradictions (He Himself seems to be one) infinitely better than me, though I see Him continually offering me new opportunities to be OK with things that aren't rational to me.
So to that and to Him and for my growing up one blink of an eye kids I say
Thank You
