The night it happened I looked at him and said "He'll never leave the house, he'll never get married, he'll never have children". I so wanted to be wrong about that. Sometimes 8 years seems like a blink. Sometimes 8 years seems like an eternity.
Christmas eve a friend's offspring became engaged. How can I be anything but happy for all parties involved. This is so exciting. I am truly happy for my friend. As a parent this is what you want to see. The passing of milestones in ones life is exciting.
There are no milestones in my life to pass. The future (I can not seem to look past) is filled with just existence.
Not what I had hoped for.
