I was going to go with "You know you're getting old" for a title to this thread but decided the one I'm using was better

Tomorrow morning I will be watching my second and youngest son graduate from high school. On Sept 25 he will be turning 19 and yet it seems like only yesterday I watched him come into this world.

I'm proud of the fact that he held a full time job and stayed in school after leaving his mothers house to live with his older brother a year ago.

For my son Andrew wine

I know exactly what you mean. My oldest is 32 and has made me a Grandmother 3 times over. I still remember his birth and when he was little. I dont feel any different inside even though I have changed on the outside. It all goes by far too quickly.
The biggest pride you can feel in the world is towards your children. Sometimes the biggest shame.roll eyes

First congratulations to your son..wine

I know the feeling as I'm one of the older one of the peeps. Each year that my daughter gets a year older I think of what I was doing when I was her age. She is living a much better life then I led when I was 46 and I am thrilled that she has made a good life for herself. It's scary cause each year that she gets older, so do I, and when you're alone, it's not a comforthing thought. Okay, now I'm depressed....laugh
