Growing Independence of Children 20080921

In the last few months, we have had a shift in our time spent with Kitty. It used to be that when we were home on the weekends, we, mostly I, would be busy playing with her. Lately she has been playing more and more on her own or busy with playing with classmates who come over. She has had play dates before, of course, but it seems she is more independent now. She's 9 and started fourth grade this year. I know as she gets older that independent time will increase, then she will be a teenager.

Because of this I have more opportunities to schedule my own time. Not used to that, but I'm sure I'll come up with something to fill the available time.

I had such a hard letting go of my kids when they became more independent! Now, they've given me the miracle and joy of grandchildren!
