I have been mom to Princess since she was in kindergarten. Today was a her last day of high school. I can't believe she graduates tomorrow.

I've spent the last few weeks scanning in old photos so I could make a movie for her. I was okay with it all until this morning, when I added the music. It was too much. I cried the whole time I watched it, and then had to watch it again to do the edits. I could hardly see the screen through the tears.

She's not a little girl anymore. In just a few short weeks, she'll be moving out and going away to college. She's such a different creature than the little girl in pig tails. I wonder who she will become, and what she will make of her life. I hope she's more like me than her mother... I hope the lessons I have taught her "stick."

When I was able to compose myself, I called Loghead. He asked me why I was crying and I told him it was because I love him so much. I thanked him for loving me and letting me love his kids; that I was proud to be her mom, and proud to say she's my daughter.

(He asked me when he got home if I'd been drinking. I told him, no, it was pure love talking...)
