Milestones

Milestones Because its graduation season and because tears of any sort can be so healing. My is a sophomore in college now, but there are always new milestones. One is never not a parent once she becomes one. Graduation… I have imagined it for a long time now; I have in turn dreaded this day and longed for it. I have both protected its coming and guarded against its arrival. I have anticipated the tears that will flow from my eyes; tears of gratitude, tears of sorrow, tears of nostalgia, tears of relief, and tears of joy. But as this day draws ever closer, will there actually be tears? I’ve learned over the years that tears are funny things. They fall with memories and anticipation; they fall with anger and frustration; they fall with sadness, of course, too. But sometimes when you expect them, they do not come. There are many occasions in which crying is the expected response, weddings, funerals, graduations, proms, endings of one era, and beginnings of another. But these are the times when you are busy dealing with life’s happenings and have no time for tears. The tears come before the event when you are planning them, and the tears come after the event when you are reflecting upon them. I have cried countless times over the milestones in your life. I have shed tears with the knowledge that each step you have taken is one more step away from me. I have been saddened by the years that have flown by. I have cried over the differences I have seen in you that have changed you from my precious little baby girl into the grown woman you have become. But I wonder as this day arrives if there will be tears of any sort or if I will be so busy helping you get dressed and out the door to this special occasion to have time to shed those tears I’ve expected to shed. Maybe I will cry a little or maybe I won’t cry at all today. But the tears will come eventually, as the reflection of all that I have lost and gained because of you over the years carries us onward to life’s next journey. |
