Her daddy finally decided she was ready for a cell phone. And it is purple too! She has now entered the "all my friends have one" zone. Another step in responsibility and just plain growing up in our eyes.
AND MOM DOESN'T LIKE IT ONE BIT!!!
Don't get me wrong. I am not upset that she has a new phone. I am not upset that she is in the band at school playing at football games. I am not upset that she is already talking about driving. I am not upset that she is starting to babysit and earn her own money. In fact I am proud of her and all she has accomplished already in her young life.
No, what upsets me is that my little girl is turning into a young lady. What upsets me is that in another 4 and a half years my baby girl will be graduating. What upsets me is that this...
is now just a precious memory to hold in my heart forever.
Being a mom is sometimes bittersweet.

I'd go with the purple cell phone, too! :)
She's just an older princess now! She'll be your princess forever!
I know it must be hard, but just remember that girls never grow out of needing their moms!!!
I feel your pain.....it's hard letting them grow into their own person who doesn't need their mommy quite as much.
That is the bad part of all the good things about growing up! She's a beautiful girl!
That is hard to look back and see how fast they grow... but on the other hand it is a joy to watch them become the young men and women the Lord want them to be! :)
How neat to have a purple cell phone! I would have loved that. lol
