Flying the Nest


Flying the Nest

Guest post of the week by Brittany Booker

How can it be possible? It seems like I just found out I was pregnant with our first child. Telling everyone we were going to have a baby, then the baby showers and preparing for our sweet son to make his arrival. That first year was a blur of bottles, naps, pacifiers, crawling and first steps. The next several years flew by with boo-boos and bad guys that he was always saving the world from. Then came school, baseball, basketball, football and more boo-boos (even though now he was too cool to call them that). Elementary school came and went, and middle school came and went. High school was a mix of girls, varsity sports, tests and college applications. And here we are, moving my 18 year old "baby" into his first apartment and preparing him to start his freshman year of college! Thankful for Internet Providers Lagrange and the technology that is available to keep up with his new life through emails, pictures and Facebook. It will just have to do until I can hug my son's neck in person when he comes home to visit
