aw.
i've been feeling that i'm passing through one of life's transitions myself. 35. not entirely sure why.
i don't get asked for ID to buy booze anymore. my grey hairs are unmistakable. i'm... well, i do appreciate that i've probably got another 5 years or so... but i'm not going to have kids. at some point the decision will be taken out of my hands. i feel odd about that.
so... i'll never know the joys of dropping a kid off at college. i can't believe kids... how quickly they show time to fly. thinking of friends who have them and then before i know it their kids are 3 or 5 or thinking about college.
college kids these days... need their parents, still. perhaps they always did. i just never noticed since i'd been happily living independently since 16. need to remember most are not like me.
that is so very sweet about the card.
