You want all those bad things happen to you, not to your daughter so you can protect them. At least that is what my mom used to say. "If only I could prevent you getting hurt, because it hurts me more to see you going through"...but we all have to do our own growing I guess. <br />I am sure she has a great life waiting for her, with all ups and down and she will make you prouder each time. <br />We are cutting carbs now, so I am not sure if I can handle lasagna now but it looks delicious and would be one of the prizes once we get back in shape :)Ilkehttp://www.ilkeskitchen.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2919469476451579082.post-38653592756960232432012-03-25T12:47:03.923-07:002012-03-25T12:47:03.923-07:00I can still feel the joy of my beautiful daughter ...I can still feel the joy of my beautiful daughter when she received the acceptance letter from her college of choice!
