Senior Night
Senior Night finally happened. It was a bit surreal. I've been to other senior nights over the years and they were......nice, sweet really. This night, this year, this time, was Kaity's time and it was hard with a capital H! My tears were flowing as soon as I made eye contact with her. She's just a little girl, my baby....how can this be? But it was real and it was happening. The steps I took on the field were the same steps that so many other parents have taken and that should have been comforting. But it wasn't. In my head I kept hearing, "this is it. this is the last time she will ever be on this field". (my mind doesn't use capitals, I guess)

my heart hurt as i read your words...and then the hot tears began.
your baby is growing up...
and you are bursting with pride for her...
and you are so excited for what her future holds...
and you have beautiful memories made, with many, MANY more in store...
but it still hurts like hell and rips your guts out.
i get it.
love you.
