(our new place!)
For the longest time I have always felt like I was still 18 years old. I felt like all of the memories I made when I was just starting college didn't seem that far off. As of late, I am realizing that they are and I am starting to be pretty grown up. As if graduating from college and getting married didn't do it for me, here are some things that have.
Some of my Junior Guards are now in college.
My brother who was 12 when I left the house is now taller than me and has a beard people! As my husband commented on our family vacation, "John, you have more hair on your chest then I do"
I now get into my home through a garage door, not a door three floors up.
I have a hose in my lawn, you know to maintain a yard because the apartment complex no longer does it.
I have an ice dispenser in my refrigerator, no more ice trays.
And the cap of it all, opening weekend at Florida State University, I was at target shopping to then go home, watch a movie with my husband and go to sleep. While a group of girls next to me are buying fake eyelashes for the big welcome back party that night.
It is weird how these little things are making me feel more grown up. But there it is! Here is to growing up, little moments at a time.
