The end of an era

He's been saying it for nigh on a year.


Every chance he gets.


He's ready for it.


Even if I'm not.


So I guess I'd better get used to it.


Cause it's true as of today.


My boy is no longer a teenager.


Happy birthday, Mr. Twenty Year Old.  How did that happen?  I love you.

    Happy 21st Birthday ... an important milestone ... but one that brings a little mix of emotions for the parents! But today I wish you all a wonderfully happy day celebrating!

    What a great snapshot of your son's life! Happy Birthday to him. My oldest turned 30 last year, but the hardest thing is that my "baby" will be 25 this year - where does the time go?!
