I'm in a weird place tonight. My youngest daughter turned 18 today making her a legal adult here in Calgary, Canada. Both my girls (and some friends) are going to the bar tonight to celebrate.

Their both good girls and I'm truly not concerned. That said, it's an odd feeling having both my kids become adults. No point here really but I felt the need to share.

Anyway, I'm sure they are two fine young adults. It doesn't matter how things change with age, they will still need love and guidance, whether they realize it or not.

Coming of age is all about making your own way. Sometimes it can be a little shakey, so having a caring parent there can be comforting.

Just wish them the best, and hope they don't forget who you are!

I would also remind them that you are but a phone call away, should the need arise.

Phone? Do you not know a teenage girl is permanently attached to one? It is a fashion accessory - earring in the right ear, phone in the left.

Won't work philly, it has to be a phone

@ Chef Garry, it's actually kinda fun watching them continue to surprise you over the years. It's really neat when years of positioning yourself to help them with housing etc. pays off. Lots of good stuff still to come.

Was ten years ago when my daughter turned 18... and I still haven't recovered from the hangover to this day.

Orright, it's not that bad... she doesn't drive me to drink, but I still can't help being concerned about her and the grandkids. It don't seem to be getting any easier for the young ones starting out these days, especially with the escalating cost of housing and mortgages making it so much harder all the time.
