My oldest son is turning 16 today and I can't believe that I have a child that can legally drive!! The time goes so fast. I had him when I was 18, so we've grown together. Being a parent at such a young age was tough, but has been a wonderful learning experience overall. He's been my buddy since I had him! I'm now looking forward and thinking about the upcoming experience of sending him off to college. With four other children I won't yet have an empty nest, but I will be really sad to say goodbye.
They grow up really fast! It feels like just yesterday we were that age. It seems as you're doing a great job raising them. Hats off to you!
ReplyDeleteI agree being a parent at a young age is tough. I had my daughter when I was 23. Now she's 14 and doing so well. She actually is studying to get her permit, isn't that great!
ReplyDeleteI had my first son at 17 and he just turned 9. It's not easy having them at a young age. I wouldn't have it any other way.
ReplyDeleteThat is really nice that you have great relationships with your kids a lot of kids out there really wants that with their parents.
