Reminds me a little of this - my favorite video to watch when my kids are being little toots! They grow up so fast.

i can so relate to that.

one day they just looked at me like "you think we're giving YOU his results, think again. " oh, sure. really, i just spent 16 years tracking his every number and move and calorie, no really it's fine, what was i thinking?

that was very well written, thanks ellen.

The tears are rolling down my face. Thank you for sharing.
My son is off to college in a year - I keep pretending that's a life time away. I guess I'll have to wake up soon.
