toy story

"mom, we're making faces."

-brennan

last saturday i realized i am an adult.

i was driving home from costco, 

and a teenage girl was struggling to merge onto the freeway.

in the process she almost hit the side of my van.

{having a van in itself classifies me as an adult i guess...}

and instead of raising my fist and cursing,

i slowed down and waited for her to move over.

simply b/c that's somebody's baby.

and i thought about how her mother would have surely wanted to help her.

so i should too.

being a mother and all.

weird.

to not feel like a kid with kids anymore.

but

a mother

with kids.
