At the very end, it references the deaths of Jim henson and Sammy Davis Jr. They both died the week my daughter was born. She started college this summer, two days after graduating from high school (not MY idea...)

I recall watching the Berlin wall coming down while my wife was pregnant with her.

I remember watching the first Gulf War holding my colicky girl in my arms.

That was just yesterday, wasn’t it. Where does the time go?

I know how you feel. My boys will be 23, 22 and 21 this year. I still have their Kindergarten artwork displayed in some places around the house. A friend will comment upon seeing a crayon drawing of a pony and a rainbow, “Oh, that’s adorable! How old is your child?”

And I’ll say, “Twenty-one!” LOL!
