I was reading Liz's post on Blonde moment. She is in her last weeks of pregnancy. It made me think of when I was pregnant with Ross about this time 20 years ago. I remember lumbering around in the heat and humidity extremely uncomfortable. I was ready to star the next phase of my life. Come to think of it, when Ned left for college I was ready for him to go to college because he was making it very uncomfortable to be around him. Guess that is God's way of preparing us for our next phase. We become uncomfortable and ready to move on. Someone once said that the pain of remaining the same becomes greater then the fear of change, that is when change happens. I have found in my life that I am becoming more and more comfortable with change because I have learned that I can't control most things anyways, so I might as well embrace it.
When you think about it, the time spent in a penalty box is time well spent. A chance to catch your breath and think about what happened –a chance to take a breather and contemplate life, and to figure out your next move. Since I can’t have a penalty box at hone, I thought I would create one here for myself.

Great quote on change. Kind of describes life with my recent high school graduate. Good to know its normal (I had suspected).
Congratulations on your graduate! Another exciting chapter of your life is starting for both of you.
