Day 8 - Sunset - I choose Sunrise! and Something You are Currently Worrying About

I chose sunrise for several reasons, 1 this is a picture of the sunrise in Oregon, OR and WA are some of the most beautiful sunrises I have seen, although the one aspect of where Dad Larry lives in CA that is the redeeming quality I have found there, but I loved this one. I am always heartbroken when I drive away from my parents home, my home. I never know if it is the last time I will see them or not. As I get older and lose person after person in my own age group, I really understand how blessed I am that both of my parents are still living. I do not wish to not be present more consistently in the next few years after school is over. But sunrise is a new beginning, a new day to make it better, be better, than you were the day before. I like beginnings and not ends.

Something I am currently worried about...oh how much room do I have to type. My family is forever on the front of this list. My girls are doing as well as I could possibly have hoped for, and quite a lot better than I thought given the garbage they had to wade through their entire childhoods. The choices that they have made have proven that they are a ton smarter and more resilient that I ever was or have been. I LOVE THIS!!!! As a mother I could not be more proud of them, each of them and their level of discovery and skills, work and family, despite the differences - of which are many because of them being their own individuals, as it should be - I love each and every one of them with all of my heart, and I am very proud of the women they have become and are continuing to become. They will realize as their children grow that no matter how old, a baby is a baby and forever in your heart and mind.

Health, parents - all of them - what my life will look like when school ends, money, job, location, separation from family, oh my oh my the list is long!
