Tonight was a great night. I went out with my parents and saw a movie called "RIO" so cute...that is if you have not seen it. I laughed and heard all the little children laugh during the movie too. At the end of the movie I looked over at my dad...what did I see? An old man, who has worked hard for his family, a man who has loved much, a man who has grown gray, a man who is growing older everyday. After we walked out of the theater we went to Wal-Mart to get some necessities and I was so protective of my parents. I walked with my mom mostly through the store to "watch out" for her. I felt as if the roles were reversed I felt as if my mom was the little two year old while I was making sure that she didn't fall, no stranger offered her anything! All the drive home I was so cautious of every turn, every bump, every car, everything...it was the strangest feeling. I felt like I was the parent! I never thought when I was younger of a day without my parents...or them getting old....wow, has this time really come to reality?
I guess what I am trying to say is....never underestimate your parents and what they do for you because they will NOT be here on Earth forever!!!
