Retired law-enforcement officer. Raised two girls (well almost). One is a sophomore in college and the other will be graduating high school this year. I so miss when they were little. I miss watching them learn and experience new things. I miss when they say the funniest things. Would be happy to spend some time watching your little ones grow.
