Mariah turned 20 years old last week and it was odd the realization of life changes that happen so gradually that all of a sudden life is on a different path.
Moments in life feel like a vapor. My life has had several before's and after's:
Single then married.
New life with a baby, Mariah was born.
Then divorced.
Surprise! Brooke is here.
That 18 year span of being a single mom, raising babies,building a life and the millions of details wonderful and not-so-wonderful that included.
Those 18 years felt like 50, then life shifts again.
Mariah is no longer a teen, but a young woman living her life in a direction filled with the things she loves, Jeremy.
Brooke is a Sophomore embracing new freedoms and just celebrated six months dating Alex.
Mariah's birthday dinner included both my daughters significant's for 1st time. As a mom, I felt that shift, it was obvious and I was more than aware of that detail all evening.
It makes me smile and embrace the new season in life we are entering. Each of us with significant's, independence, new freedoms, and our family growing. After 18 years of it being 3.
I embrace these wonderful additions.
