Almost a quarter century

Our youngest turns 20 today. This marks the end of 22 years of raising teenagers! Lots of memories - dare I even go there? Sky diving, things pierced, chocolate chip cookies, early morning seminary, summers in Utah, lacrosse, horseback riding, bike racing, softball, concerts, piano lessons, atari, raspberry shakes, helicopter rides over the Grand Canyon, speeding tickets, truck, tattoos, snowmen, ski trips. And laughter, tears, amazing accomplishments, courage, and miracles. What a blessed Mother's Day.

Thanks, Mom. You're still in the middle of what I suppose will be 22 years of raising 20-somethings!!

Just testing, you said comments were blocked.

I submitted a particularly moving comment in response to this post, but it evaporated. Nevertheless, it was a great comment.
