No Helicopters in Sight
My little boy wants to go five houses down to play.
They are sweet kids with good parents, what can I say?
I swallow the worry and say that he can.
I fight the urge to follow my little man.
I sit out of sight and watch him have fun on this beautiful day.

Enjoy it Loki. They grow up WAAAAAY too fast.
I know the feeling well.
Touching.
We will always worry about our kids, even and especially when they are grown.
Watching is good!
I'm sure those days are right around the corner! I just don't want them to come yet :)
Nicely done, you have to live, love and let-go! Cheers :)
Nice verse, written like the loving mom you are.
It's hard to let them go...
