Growing up

Starting from the Toddler program at Growing Tree, all throughout Nursery and thru Pre-K, my drop off routine with Lauren was a hug, a kiss, and two high fives.  This morning, out of no where, Lauren told me, "But mom, my friends don't do that."  When I responded in shock, "Lauren!" she said, "Okay fine.  But no high fives."  So I settled for a hug and a kiss. 

When I got back in the car to head to work, I was in such disbelief and overcome with sadness.  Children, even mine, do grow up.  I wouldn't have been so upset, I don't think, if it was E since she has always been more independent but this is my Lauren!
