Today was first day of school. I think it was worse on me than them. Maybe because I was 3 hours away. The little one started kindergarten and couldn't have been more excited and excuberant. No hesitation there!!!! Feel sorry for her teacher! The older one started middle school. Talked on the phone several times to make sure her friends liked what she was going to wear and no one else was wearing the same ting. She initially thought she wanted her Mom to go in with her to make sure she got everything in her locker just right. At the moment they got there she decided she wanted to do it on her own. Youngest one had a very loose tooth for several days. Her big sister told her not to do anything about it until today because if it came out IN school she would get a treasure box! So she worked on it in the car and then left it alone for awhile and the big moment finally arrived. She lost her first tooth at school. Tomorrow big sister has her 11th birthday and is always excited to celebrate it in school with her friends. Pictures were sent to Grandma and all is happy. Well except for Grandma. I had to let my own child grow up and now I have to let my grand children grow up to. But they are so sweet. You hate to see them go through all the stress kids go through these days. We didn't have security checks in school

I have always wondered why grand kids grow faster than our kids. When our kids started school we cried and thought it would not last. Things were good until our grand kids get started. We have one in the 12th grade, and it seems just yesterday she started kindergarten. My thoughts and prayers are with you.

DD (20) left for college this morning, Has her first apartment, a college boyfriend waiting, her first life-guard job (at school pool) waiting. I know if I drag my feet it doesn't slow her down. Her Twin brother will leave in a week for his college. Has an apartment and room-mate waiting. Lives Mom isn't in. Oh well. Guess this is what is suppose to happen. Next summer is their last college vacation summer. Where does the time go?

My grandbabies arent in school or near school age yet, but yes they sure do grow fast. My oldest grand daughter is almost 2yrs old! Time flew! My other grand daughter is 10 months old already! That time really flew by! By December, there will be yet another grandbaby in the family and another one to grow way to quick for grammy!! It flies fast for me because I live 10 hours away and cant see them daily, weekly or even monthly

I know I have no control over it but I have just prayed that God won't take my daughter any more than 3 hours from me and my other one lives here in town.
