Banks Dynasty – Day 45.2

After an incredible night with Waddell, we both get up early the morning of Kai’s birthday.  He needs to get back to his dog, and I have a lot of planning to do to help Kai celebrate his big day. I slip on my robe after Waddell has left, thinking about how tough it is at times to face the changes in my life.

As I’ve gotten older, my parents started to grey, eventually, mama passed on, and as much as it hurts to think about it – I’ll one day be saying goodbye to daddy too.

Then there’s Kai. I enter his bedroom, knowing that he’d probably protest that I entered without knocking if he was awake. But I watch him sleep for a while, hoping that I’ve done enough to prepare him to face college and adulthood.

Then I reflect on what I’ve done in my life. I can say that it’s been colorful. I’ve loved, laughed, and even cried – feeling the full range of hues and emotions. As much as I wish I could protect my son like I did when he was little. I know that I can’t. He’ll have to go through his own trials. I can warn him all I want, but if he’s anything like me – he’ll insist on learning on his own, no matter the cost.
