12. I've been thinking about this all day
I live an hour away from my parents and both of my sisters live far away. I went over today to help after they had the house painted. I know I'm lucky because they are 75 and you would never know it. But I spent the day realizing that they have aged and that I have to help out more. So many times today, I realized a subtle shift in responsibility and I don't like it. I want to be a kid again but it is not going to happen. Today was a change in our relationship and I'm sort of shook up. I think I finally grew up today.
