Think Different, Act Different, Be Different

Yeah....my kids are all grown but they're not gone from my life!

It's just that we've outgrown the daily bedtime stories --- now we tell real-life stories of people we meet every day. The kind, the demanding, the sensitive, the annoying, the ones who melt your heart and those whom you'd like to hang upside down!

We've outgrown the children's playground ---- now we all go to the gymn and do our workout (at varying speed of course!).

We've outgrown the kiddy meals and fast foods ---- now we eat low carbs, low salt, low sugar and chunks of meat.

Indeed, times and things and 'turns' have changed.

The kids used to listen and believe whatever I said. It's my turn now to listen to their vast knowledge and instructions about the computer, the latest acronyms, the newest health discoveries.
I used to dream of the day when I can be in a 'retirement mode'. But now they tell me "money isn't everything".

It's ok ----really. Because I am very glad that my grown up kids (27, 24, 21) love to come home, they enjoy lying on my bed to share their day's happenings, they tell me off for my bad habits (hmmm.....like poor posture), they advise me on handling disturbing situations, they laugh with me and at me too!
No worries ---- I 'm secure.

And they are secure, too.

We are family....forever.
