Carter, my oldest child, has always been very independent. As a baby he didn't need to be held all the time, as a toddler he was off and running at playgroup with no care of where his mommy was, and as a school aged kid, he is always ready to go and do with whoever, whenever. So, it was a special day for me yesterday when he came home from being at a friends house all day and said, "Mom, what does homesick mean again?" (as he is hugging on me). I said, "it's when you miss your family and your home". "That's what I thought. Mom, I was homesick today." He will never know how his sad moment made me smile.
