Not sure if I’m ready to be this old yet.
I came home last night after working a little late. The house was dark, dinner was reheated. Teresa was in the midst of her nightly schedule, busy with a myriad of things. I sat and ate dinner and noticed the house was too quiet.
“Have you heard from Becca today?” I asked…
And that’s when I got the snapshot of our waning years. We spend so much time with Rebecca that it just feels weird without here there. She’s only in DC for the week but somehow if feels like she’s been gone a while and it was a creepy feeling. Every parent goes through this I guess. When she goes off to college I’ll have to get used to it.
It was a small glimpse into our future and it felt icky.
