Thanks for sharing all you do here. This year is hitting me hard too - my Kindergartener just brought home her 1st yearbook and is already calling herself a FIRST Grader... My sweet boy is already done preschool and looking forward... I'm the only one not so eager for time to move so quickly... Homeschooling is very appealing and I'll be back to learn more on your lovely blog. CONGRATULATIONS on all you've accomplished with your son!!!<br />hugs,<br />LeslieLeslie @ Farm Fresh Funhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03970398718118889905noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3512642049971207057.post-43219594803073361072010-06-03T01:24:21.522-04:002010-06-03T01:24:21.522-04:00Staying busy helps.

It is definitely a wonderful time but also a difficult one. Perhaps you should eat more desserts during the next few weeks!<br /><br />SamanthaSamanthahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12173981103532311125noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3512642049971207057.post-90964137624225809362010-06-01T15:05:54.166-04:002010-06-01T15:05:54.166-04:00That leaves me with a big lump in my throat...I ne...That leaves me with a big lump in my throat...I need to get busy.Christyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00475107479874994178noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3512642049971207057.post-22390355442554960852010-06-01T09:02:07.179-04:002010-06-01T09:02:07.179-04:00all these sorts of things hit me like a ton of bri...all these sorts of things hit me like a ton of bricks around march of my oldest son's senior year. what was really hard for me was not so much that he was going to leave us as that i felt like we weren't finished with him yet!-- that it couldn't possibly be time for us to parent him as an adult when we didn't really feel like we were finished parenting him as a kid. it was not so much about him going away as it was about it being the end of an era.<br /><br />we are now down to four (2 parents, 2 kids) from our original six. the vacation we just took to your neck of the woods was a family vacation with our "new" family of four. you do get used to a new normal. life settles into a routine and it isn't always this hard.40winkzzzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04707345570759229347noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3512642049971207057.post-80231732950296917662010-06-01T08:54:29.067-04:002010-06-01T08:54:29.067-04:00This post breaks my heart a little...*sigh*This post breaks my heart a little...*sigh*Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00081982605206256145noreply@blogger.com
