I have been feeling melancholy lately, I think it is because my child will be turning 18 soon. This is probably hard for all mothers but I am finding it especially hard. I was only 19 when I had Taylor and in so many ways I grew up with her. I am sure I have made many mistakes and there are definitely things I look back on and cringe, but more than that I look at this beautiful child who is smart, talented and has a heart for people in need... and I am so proud. I did this..
This month is full of college visits and preparations for life outside of this safety of this house. I know she is ready but I don't think that I am.
This is Taylor singing at her high schools masterworks concert in January. She was the soloists and I am so very proud of her. I can't wait to see the treasure that this beautiful woman brings to the world.
