my little girl turns 10 today
What an amazing decade. I remember it all like it was yesterday I would play guitar and sing to her when she was a few months old and she stared at me like I was Elvis. Then there was learning to walk, potty train, read, ride a bike, cast a fishing rod. Now we go to One Direction concerts and play Wii together. She still likes to fish with me. lately, She has been calling boys "cute" and came home the other day saying a boy has a crush on her. She takes 20 mins to get dressed, worries about what she wears. She is a gorgeous girl and everyone has been telling me for years Im going to be in big trouble and I see those days approaching fast.
Im not ready for the next 10 yrs, boys, dating, cars, high school, college. Crap, I'm still reeling from my high school days. She is rapidly approaching what were some of the best days of my life. But those days were great for all the wrong reasons. I hope I can keep her in one piece and still let her develop into the person she needs to be. This aint gonna be easy
