Hey, It's Okay

I got this idea from Glamour magazine. You can link up any day of the week. All you have to do is make a list of what you're okay about. Simple! Please do not link up a post that has nothing to do with Hey, It's Okay. It's rude and I'll delete the link.





HEY, IT'S OKAY....



....to be in disbelief that my son is turning 18 on March 2nd. Ack! How did that happen?



.....to be picking Tommy up early from school on his birthday so we can have lunch and celebrate his birthday. He's had perfect attendance, so I don't feel guilty.



.....to have told Tommy he can pick wherever he wants to eat on his birthday. Lunch and dinner. He's all, "We can go out TWICE?" That rarely happens. And no, my kids don't ask me to cook a special meal because I burn things. Right now Tommy is saying he wants Logan's Roadhouse for lunch and McDonald's for dinner.



....to be picking up a Shamrock Shake when we go to McDonald's. I tried the new Mint Oreo McFlurry and it was tasty! The mint flavoring wasn't mixed in that well, but you could still taste the mint at least.



.....to have gone to Pass Member Appreciation Day at SeaWorld San Antonio to check out the new wooden coaster Texas Stingray. I'm too much of a wimp to go on, so my kids did it, and said it was tons of fun. We also got this beanie and cookie for being pass members (plus sunglasses):

  3. It is amazing how the time flies and a little kid grows up. My daughter is in college and my son is turning 15. Sunrise sunset.

  8. You notice the passage of time even more when you have children. For me only 2 years passed since my little angel arrived and thinking about it now it's like a blink of an eye.

  15. I like his food choices. Last year the Shamrock shake was disappointing. Kinda minty gooey. I missed it so I hope it is better this year.

  17. I can't even imagine my daughter turning 18. While I know I still have a few more years, I also know it will sneak up on me before I know. Just so wild.

  20. Time flies when you are having a good time. Many people say they are afraid for their children to grow up so fast. It's inevitable, so every moment must be cherished.
