One wish granted

Kate, Ryan and Jenna all went to a friends house today and since Eric was napping Kelsey and I snagged a few minutes of peace. This never happens. Just the two of us in a quiet house not having to meet any one's needs besides our own. So what did we do? I got out the hot chocolate, some conversation heart candy and the backgammon board. We talked, we played and I lost. (just like old times, right Sheila?) But I gained what I've been missing out on and that is time with my daughter. She's growing up so quickly and once she turns 14 in April I'm afraid the time will go even quicker. I don't know what I'd do without her. All my friends when they see her say, "I wish I had a Kelsey!" I'm so lucky I do!
I love you Kelsey! Thank you! Can't wait to do it again!

Those are fun memories... I should pull out the backgammon- haven't played in a LONG time.
I know exactly how you feel- they really are growing up fast. Can't believe we are already having "college" conversations at our dinner table.
