Five on Sunday!!!!! I rejoice in his accomplishments and yet can not believe how fast the years are going by!!!Can one rejoice and cry at the same time..... My Baby is growing up and still his future is uncertain but he is doing so well and works so hard! So tell me if you are a parent of a "Special" child as I am or a "Normal Child" how do you feel about them growing up...About their future? Do you wish they stayed little...Are you missing your little one as they are growing up before your eyes? Are you concerned for their future for any reason? Do you feel adequate as a parent...That you have done the best Job you could and made the right decisions so far? I could make several different discussions around this! What do you think? ~Heavens~

My baby boys have grown into fine young men and my youngest has a baby boy of his own now. They are very special to me and yes i feared for their future when they were small and I still do now. I do miss them being young and having them all to myself, but I am so very proud of them now..... and since Im the mom..... I still get to call them my babies.

I am sending lots of Birthday wishes to your gorgeous son today heavens - and to his very special Mom! I know how well he is doing and how hard he works and I share those feelings of very mixed emotions as I watch my 2 grow up! I worry so much about the decisions I make for them and whether I could do better, what if I did this , how can I do that - it is never ending but we just have to try and content ourselves that we are doing the best we can - and you do a great job sweetheart! Hugs xxx
