Another Milestone

I kind of felt like Jill on Home Improvement today. I took Andy to get his official license this afternoon. He then drove me home. Later this evening he left the house, picked up Kate, and went to a play at school. He called when they got to the school and then when they left. He was home within the hour. I was nervous the whole time. Not because I didn't trust him but just because he was not with me. I have lost another knot in the apron strings and I have to admit that it hurts. It just takes him one step closer to leaving the nest. I know that we raise them up to do that but it is a hard thing to do. I know this is a good thing but right now it is tough. They really do grow up too fast. I look at my son and all I see are this little guy still needing me but standing before me is a young man.
