KJ Eastwick
Slightly crazy writer and passionate educator for those who struggle
Where did the years go
Offen do I wonder
Where do the days go
Time passes mysteriously
Suddenly your baby is fifteen years old
It wasn’t like you missed it
You saw them every day
You gave them hugs and tucked them in
You laughed away your days
But one day you wake up
To find your little sprot
Has grown a few inches taller
Has broadened out and shot
Up!
Taller than you
Taller than all
Where did those fifteen years go?
And that is something I never thought I’d say.

Congratulations, KJ, you’ve caused me to have to reach for the Kleenex…

It is so true. I look at my adult kids and still see them as the babies I held.
