['Being a bit teary-eyed tonight realizing how grown my children are.', 'I understand that all too well', "In no time at all, they will be out of our house completely.  I guess I'll have to get a dog, I'll be one of those ladies that has a dog stroller and takes the dog to grocery shop!"]
My oldest only has 3 years to go and I already have dogs! I guess I'll need more
Realizing tonight how grown up our children are.  It won't be long before they are out of our house completely.
