when a cub reaches a certain age and particular accomplishments you can almost hear the click as the gears shift in your role as a parent. It's a moment of pride but also a little bittersweet if I may, as I do on the rare occasion be serious and sentimental.
she was a 2.5 lb. pre mature baby and always the quiet one. Over the last year she and I have had a lot of arguments and cold moments between us because we both are stubborn and unbending, but gosh do I love her. I have seen her assimilate and put into practice things she's learned from me whether she knows it or not and that can be both prideful and painful. :wink:
Anyway, I'm very proud of her and wish her happiness and fullfillment.
Oh yeah, and she went out and registered to vote immediately after turning 18. As a democrat.
