My Baby Is How Old? Really?

It's my youngest daughter's birthday today. She made this cup for me several years ago....yes, I still have it (she must have known I loved purple.)

I used to call her my "Angel" (she's still my angel, but now I have to share her with her husband and those sweet Monkey Boys.)


She's really funny, especially around that husband of hers. I keep telling them
their face is going to freeze like this, but they just don't listen to me!

She's really talented, too. She decorates cakes that taste as good as they look
and she sews when there's not a Monkey Boy hanging onto her legs or in her arms.

Sometimes I'm taken aback when I realize that I have children who are all grown up.
I can't possibly be THAT old....can I?  

Have you been checking out the Black Tie Boogie Blog Hop?
It's been such cocka-doodle-do fun!

  1. My daughter just celebrated a birthday and I'm still trying to wrap my brain around how old she is already! I must say, there's nothing like a relationship with an adult child!! It's amazing. Her cakes are beautiful!

  3. I don't feel that old either. I feel more like she and I are just contemporaries because we share a love of needle crafts. My brain tells me I am still about 30. I bet you are too! Your daughter is a stunning decorator, and I know. I was a professional baker.

  4. No you're not that old, your children age, who can stop them, but you, you are timeless!
    Congratulations on the birthday of your beautiful daughter and mom of lovely monkey boys and wife of a cute husband and creative person of her own ;-) Enjoy this special day!

  6. My little girl's birthday is today, too! She's 27 though; not so little any more. I'm sad because she lives far away now. Ah, well - that's the way it goes, doesn't it? How do they grow up so fast?

  7. It's really strange to see them this old, isn't it? Mine are 37, 45 and 48...oh my goodness! But we never change the way we feel about them; no matter the age they're still our babies. blessings, marlene

  17. Rosemary B here:
    Your daughter is and was adorable. I love the pic of her and her hubbybubb.
    It is frightening but you have to remember that you had your children at a very very young age, like me.
    Both of my daughters are married now.
    I cannot believe it either. it seems like just a few years ago I was shuttling them around in that silly van.
    Anyway, Happy birthday to your marvelous angel! and to YOU
