Youngest child graduates from 8th grade today!

Middle child graduates from high school tomorrow!

I am happy for them......sad for me.  They are growing way too fast.  Middle leaves for college in 2 weeks for a 6 week summer program for new Freshman.  He can live in the dorms and get 7 credits and acclimate himself to his new college.

I know those happy and sad simultaneous emotions. (((Dawn)))

I'm a little jealous of your middle son. I LOVED summer classes in college! And to live on campus makes it even more fun.

But as a mom, I'd be thinking, "No, not yet! I'm not ready!"

I know how you feel. Just had our last dinner with dd (22) before she leaves the province tomorrow. This will, most likely, be the last time we ever live in the same province again. 

Our 18 year old graduates high school at the end of the month. My younger two are going into grade 9 and 11 in the fall. It's really weird to think we'll be down to two kids at home soon.
