Cyn remarked to me over the last few days that Abbey is becoming more and more of a mature young person (as opposed to “my little girl” which I always think of her as :)). From the ideas she is comprehending, the books she is reading, to the subjects she is talking about with her friends and us, she is clearly maturing.
That’s obviously a wonderful thing. But it also makes me sad because I wish she wouldn’t “grow up so fast”, as they all do.
