growing up is hard to do

Our little friend Madison came over on Sunday to say good-bye. Her and her mom are moving. The kids were shocked at first, and then kept yelling down the street "bye Madison!". It made me sad. Growing up I hated that things had to change (I still do). I remember so many little random friends from my childhood who seemed to come and go, I think friendship is such an important part of life, growing up, figuring out who we are and what we want to be. Madison is one of those little friends that you wish you could just ask if she could come live with you. She is just a little reminder that the only thing constant in life is change. ho-hum :(
