2022

Sophie and I attended "Smooth Sailing" together on Tuesday night. This is a get excited about Kindergarten and meet all of the teachers night. It was fun. I think that she will love Kindergarten, although I think that this is going to be my hardest first day of school yet for several reasons. The cut-off date for Kindergarten here is August 1, so Sophie will be the very youngest in her class. And Kindergarten is all-day here. And Landon is going to Middle School. Yes, Middle School starts in fifth grade here. And I will only have one child at home with me all day. Crazy. But I am going to clear my mind and not freak out about any of this until the Fall. We have a great, care-free summer planned. The freak-out that I meant to focus on in this post was that they introduced Sophie's class as the Class of 2022 the other night. 2022!?! Can you believe that? When I think of the Class of '22, I think about my great-grandparents not my kids. But I guess that will change as the wheel of time keeps going round. Which somehow reminds me of that Ferris Bueller quote. "Life moves pretty fast. If you don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it."
