PROJECT 365 - Day 186 - Independence

PROJECT 365- Day 186 - Independence

I know they are getting bigger.  I go back and forth between enjoying the fact that they are getting bigger and not liking it one bit.  If you are a mommy you will understand that statement.  That being said, I try to give them some independence and try not to freak out about it when I do.  This summer, they have started riding their bikes around the side streets whereIcan'tseethem!  This is a big step for me, I mean them...you get the idea.  They are absolutely fine.  They watch for cars and pay attention to what is around them and they totally love having the freedom to hop on their bikes and ride down to the bay and around the "neighborhood".  I can usually be found on the deck watching for them to return and wondering if I should go walk down the road and check on them.  The Princess started enjoying this new freedom and The Bear soon followed.  Tonight, The Boy asked to go with them on his scooter.  Gulp!  Me - "Will you watch for cars?" Him - "Yes, Mommy!"  Me - "Will you stay with your brother and sister?"  Him - "Yes, Mommy!" Me - "Ok - one time around and come back.".......And off they went.  All three of my babies enjoying independence.....  sniffle......   They are getting bigger.
