Growing Up
I was eating breakfast this morning, and Michelle and some Bullocks and Lofresos were leaving to go to a concert type thing... and it hit me. Not only do my friends and I have jobs, but now all of our younger siblings have jobs, and are driving all over the place. Somehow, though, it doesn't seem nearly as weird as it was when the first group of kids (myself included) were driving and working all of a sudden. Maybe it's an oldest-kid thing... but somehow, I think I'm still kind of in denial regarding the whole thing. Maybe I'm 19, but Michelle should still be 14, as far as my internal clock is concerned. And my parents still seem 40.
Time flies. Next time I look up, Michelle will be in college and Sarah will be driving.

haha yeah, I definitely know what you mean, its pretty freaky for me to look around at all my friends driving, and for us to now be basically the "old" people in OYG. Man, that happened WAY too fast...
You know, my mom and I were talking about that yesterday on the porch. The kid next store to us is now going into 8th grade. We moved in when he could barely string two words together. Ehh... growing up leads to more stress...
It gets worse...one day you wake up and your CHILDREN are driving. Scary.
