Growing Up

Say it isn't so? My little girl is not so little anymore. A couple weeks ago, Sissy went to her first children's retreat at church. In other words, she slept away from home...without her Mom. She's had many sleep overs, but only with family members or close friends.

It feels like she's hitting a milestone. Not just the retreat, but with Sissy out growing her "little girl" things. Part of me is excited to see her grow up and I'm so proud. However, part of me is sad. As we've started getting rid of some stuff in the house, like toys the kids have outgrown. It about brought me to tears as I boxed up baby dolls and princess stuff. Remembering a time past, never to return. But, I'm also looking forward to new adventures and memories together.

Hugs and Kisses to my sweet girl. Momma Wolg

Sissy and her BFF going to the "Whatever" Children's Retreat
Such a sweet friendship...reminds me of my childhood friend "Bye Mom"
She's probably thinking...You can go now Mom.
Nope, can't make me; I'm watching you leave.


Back from the retreat...Sissy had a blast! She's happy, tired and dirty. And, she's ready for summer camp now.
