Next thing you know she'll be in her second year of college...like mine. I had a hard time sending her off last Wednsday. I don't know what it was but it was harder than last year :-(

Are your running like a million miles this week again...?

We live directly across the street from the k-5 school. All of my kids have been there. My youngest is trying to break the family record of tardies for this year, since it is his final year ..... The bell rings and they think they still have 5 minutes left. Drove me nuts years ago..... its pretty amusing at this point in my life. Enjoy every moment with them!

Ah, yes... I remember well. Good luck :)

JG - don't even want to think about high school

April - true statement

IJR - impossible to imagine them old enough to go to college right now! 53 miles this week is the plan

Rye - sounds conveinient! The elementary school here is a mess trying to get in and out of by car.

Thanks Dan.
