Unexpected Party!

A very special Friday night dinner party occurred rather spontaneously tonight. I couldn't have even imagined how much I was going to laugh, and how much I was going to learn.

My small dinner party began at sunset sitting around the pool side table in the comfy chairs. My two boys and even the family dog enjoyed dinner and very intelligent conversation.

My boys are officially young men and I couldn't be prouder of the self thinking individuals they have become.

At what age did they grow up so much? I almost wonder if I missed some milestone event, but I've been here everyday. It took an unexpected
moment of being truly present and enjoy their company.

Our roles have evolved. I'm not an overprotective mom protecting her babies anymore. I truly am just their mentor and hoping to be a guiding force in their life.

They have their own journeys just like me, and I see how our interconnected lives make every life lesson important. We all learn from each other.

It really has been a perfect day, especially when I will look back on this moment and smile forever with the memory.

Wishing you joy and love always,
Maile
