Missing My Kiddo

Hi everybody! If you are reading this, I will begin by apologizing for my lack of blogging skills. This will be my first attempt to try this. This week is band camp week for the Jr. High students here at Russellville schools... Yes. that is correct, my daughter Lacey is now in Jr. High, Eighth grade to be exact. If that doesnt make you feel a little old, I don't know what will. I was thinking about it the other day, and realized that we have been out of school ourselves for 15 years, and to me that just doesn't seem possible.

So, my Lacey is away at band camp, and I am not quite sure what to do with myself. I am so used to her being here to talk(or fight :) ) with me, that I am completely lost. I keep wondering what is going to happen when she actually goes away to college in a few years, and that is just what it is, a few years. She is almost 13, and I look at her and wonder where the time has gone. I just remind myself each day to cherish all of the time that I have left with her, and hope that I have taught her morals and values to carry her through the hard times in life. I will post some pics of her at band camp when she gets me some. Hope you all enjoy watching her grow like I do.
