Sometimes, I still look back to the days when life was still a lot simpler, when my kids were a whole lot more manageable. No use doing that though, as I found out first hand. Kids grow up and boy they do it so fast.
My eldest, Khansa, 11, is now on the sixth grade of elementary school. She has her own friends, her own activities, her own world sometimes, and even her own diaries. She's not very open to me, but I always try my best to know about her world. I don't want to be one of those snooping parents, but I can't really let her have too much freedom because then she would probably be one of those teens who don't talk to their parents. Sometimes, I have trouble dealing with her. But, our relationship is in working progress though I hope it can be more than just that.
My only son, Tristan, is very much in love with his games. He loves his games more than his study that's for sure. When it concerns his study from school, he won't even lift a finger to find the answer to a problem in his homework in his textbook. However, when it concerns one of his games, he's even willing to take notes from the Internet or other experts. So, I need to work on that.
My youngest, Kiandra,thinks too highly of me and she thinks the world of me. I'm not flawless, but I do try to be better. She's just too close to me. I try my best not to play favorites, and I don't think that I am. However, my youngest has very good behaviors in terms of helping others and being friendly to people.
Anyway, all I can say is that time flies so fast and in the blink of an eye, your kids are teenagers, then adolescence, then they'll be off to college before starting a family of their own. Whoaaa!!!
Back up a little...
I'm just gonna enjoy, cherish, bathe in the present presence...
Here's their last taken photograph...
