Immanuel's shoes

This morning, as I was clearing away Immanuel's old clothes n shoes that he could no longer fit into,a sense of sadness and heartache suddenly swept over me.My boy is growing up so fast!Sounds like sickly sentimentalism I know,but I dread to face the day when he is gonna start his own life wout us and leave home.Do most mommies feel this way or is it only me????? : (
