Losing my last "little boy"! Trevor turns 18 at 3:10 a.m. 7/10


And Troy will be 22 next December...Time DOES fly! Enjoy your little ones while they're little...I sure do miss mine, even though I'm enjoying their emergence into adulthood...

I can only hope...I believe both will be well into their 30's before that happens -- if it happens!

And Troy's room was turned into my video editing room (fish were considered...but I have to work!) and Trevor has made us PROMISE not to turn his room into a bird room!

ditto reefman - I left for the Army and the new deck with pool and hot tub got put up and suddenly the drive looked like a new car lot.

Not to worry, you'll like them as adults Especially when they don't bug you for the car anymore

Well Shirley the funny part about them going from kids to adults is the fact you wanted to have the house to yourself some day and when they are gone it seems so quiet and big and would be nice to hear their voices and the running of little feet down the stairs, etc.

P.S. They sure look like nice young men and beaming with confidence as they face the world ahead and many conquest lay ahead for them as well! You and your hubby have done a great job with them!

My bedroom was quickly converted into an exercise room. My sister's room has not been touched since she moved out. I don't know if they threw a bigger party when I moved out or when my sister moved out. I was not invited to either of them.
