a long way

miss Erica has come along way..
She has talked and talked about her plans.. in the beginning I thought maybe thats what it was talk,
especially when we started having all kinds of family things happen on both sides of the family.
My grandmas cancer and miss erica helping take care of her then my grandpa breaking his hip, she was the back bone through it all. I know she is a teenagers but she has really shown resolve and strength, I think she will do great in her career choice.
Sometimes I go through the mom thing, worrying that someone's using her but I do have to let her grow up.. right?
I told her she has gone through boot camp for boot camp .. literally. Sometimes I think poor thing, then I tell her
good thing her basketball coach was a drill sergeant .. lol .. shes been exercising every day running, crunches and the wii fit.
There is no way I could do what she is doing for herself. She wants to travel the world, and wants to learn about others. I am scared and excited for her all at the same time. Hoping we can have a party before the big send off, we shall see. I will try to keep posting the road to her adulthood here. Keep her in your thoughts and prayers, and me too for my sanity .. lol thanks dar ..
or as Eddie from work calls me dardar .. lol
