M turned 8 today. Say WHAT!!??!? That's right! My baby is 8! I can hardly believe it, but now that I think about it I probably saw it coming. Little signs were all over, really. Like the fact that I can no longer lift him up into my arms. Or the fact that he doesn't call me mommy anymore and kisses my cheek instead of my lips. Maybe it was the fact that he prefers chapter books to picture books and loves multiplication. Or it could have been that he wants to play football or chess with his friends instead of Candyland with his mommy. Its weird, but even with all those signs it still caught me by surprise that my baby, my first-born is officially an 8 year old. It helped, though, when he commented on his new status.
"I know I'm eight, but I still feel seven. It will probably take a week or two before I really feel eight."
