I know I am a far ways behind you, since my son is only 3, but I can certainly relate. I feel for you. It starts with letting them go from babies, to toddlers ( and what I wil be experiencing with putting Christian in Pre-school...and not wanting to let go of my baby yet)...and then all of the other phases and changes that will take place. (((HUGS))) to you, mommy. I surely understand not wanting to let them go, no matter how old they are...they will always be our babies, and we, as mothers, will just naturally want them close.
