I just got the grim reality that my girls r growing up. Just took my 14yo step daughter to buy her…

I think about this all the time! Like, before I know it, I'm gonna be buying her prom dresses and tampons 😭

I was hit with that reality about 3 yrs ago when my then 10yo daughter started. My youngest step daughter is 4 so I've got a Lil while for her yet but even my oldest boy is starting to go through puberty already and while totally different it's still heartbreaking my babies r growing up so fast @jlf240

@lost041, mine hasn't even come out yet and I'm still dreading the day she brings home a boy or asks me questions I don't know how to answer. Ugh. Parenting is scary!

It's very scary and everyday I question whether or not I'm making the best decision for us but I do what I can when I can and that's all we can do. @jlf240

@lost041, I guess all we can do is love them and be there for them, really. I just want mine to stay a baby forever.

We all would love for our children to stay babies forever. I asked my youngest boy if he could quit growing already and he told me he didn't think he could do that. It's really depressing they have to grow up. @jlf240

Awww! That's so sweet!
