This will probably sound completely pathetic, but today is my eldest son's 16th birthday, and like my title says, I can't stop crying. I've been emotional all day.
I've put together some social media reals of him growing up and it's made me realise how little he needs me now. And it's breaking my heart.
I mean, I realise that there's nothing different since yesterday, but today it's just hit me like a brick.
I'm so insanely emotional about this and I'm thinking maybe I'm too emotional. I don't remember my mother ever being like this or any other mums I know.
Has anyone else ever felt this way when their teen turns a certain age? Is it normal or do I just need to get a grip?
Just realised I wrote 'som' instead of 'son' in the title. What a numpty. I can't change it.
