Change.

I was standing outside of Regis in Fair Oaks Mall today and Angelina was sleeping soundly in the duel Graco stroller, the Cadillac of strollers. I could not hold it back, I let loose a few tears that rolled down my face. I wiped them with my hand shortly after they hit my cheek. The funny thing is at the surface it seemed silly but in my heart it was profound.

Sofia, you got your first full hair cut today.No matter how hard I fight it, there is no way I can stop or even slow down the fact that you are growing so fast. It was not long ago you where the one sleeping in the stroller, and I couldn't wait till you could walk and talk. You were sitting in the chair, so big, with your mother telling the stylist what to do with your hair. You grinned your little grin but you were not totally sure how to react. I am so proud of you and always will be.

Change is inevitable, we do not grow and become better people without change. Sometimes the harder the change the more profound of an impact it has on our life. The only people who like change are wet babies, everyone else will try to fight it. You must do the best you can to embrace it. You will not always succeed but you will gain immensely if you continue to try.
