such is life.

When my aunt text me a few months ago "you wouldn't leave Kaedyn overnight would you?" I can remember my reaction & my reply "ha ha. no. why?"
But as the night got here I remember that reaction and thought... I can do this. I have always been one for a good girls night out. The weather was awesome. It was my last chance to sit on the beach, listen to the waves and appreciate all we take for granted in nature. Then to end the night dancing and singing away... how could I leave?
I did however get up early, drive the 2 hours home because I missed my baby. As I was told a bunch of times "mommys can be still their own person" It is true.
The next day we cleaned out our jeep, put "for sale" signs in it and posted it online. Sold within hours.
These events back to back made me realize how fast time goes. How much we take for granted and how much I feel I am getting old. I know I am not old by any means. Just a feeling.
I had to take my jeep for one last ride... to drop it off to a 16 year old kid who I found myself giving a lecture on how to make sure he slows down around curves & exit ramps.
There it was. Passing on my youth, the freedom I felt driving with no doors and my keys to so many memories.
I know it's just a car ( one of many I have had) but I am surely going to miss it.
