Journey

C finished exams last night. She is relieved; not only to have the semester over, but to start the next semester with her new take on life. It was virtually impossible for her to make her “life change” retroactive to the beginning of semester work. Next semester will be her fresh start.

I am in awe of her right now. She decided she wanted to make a change, that it was time and she is. She is growing everyday. She is becoming the woman that she always could be, but wasn’t. She is contributing to our relationship and our home. She is helping take care of the animals. She isn’t only growing up in the classic sense of the phrase; she is growing on an entirely different level. She is seeing the world with new eyes and understanding it with a new point of view.

I have said for the last four years that twenty-five is the year that people realize they need to grow up, even if they already think they are, at twenty-five they realize they aren’t. It happened to me. I got rid of many negative things and people in my life. I realized I needed to slow down; the party wasn’t the point of life. Guess how old C is now…25. It’s like magic!

(It’s like magic reminded me of Sarah Sivlerman – “Mommy is from the chosen people and Dadd believes that Jesus is MAGIC!” I love that)

Anyway, I can’t wait to see who I wake up next to tomorrow. Wait, that sounded wrong…more I can’t wait to see C’s next step in her journey.
