So, here goes today's blog entry.
Question: Where does the time go?
I can't believe that tomorrow Kera will take her last final of the semester. This means that in the fall she will be starting her junior year at Keene State. Seems like just yesterday I was taking her for her first day of kindergarten! I know I have two college graduates who are productive members of society already but the last child is the hardest to watch grow-up. Everything she does and every step she takes towards adulthood means one more last time for me as a parent. How incredibly selfish am I? I should be looking at all of the firsts instead but for some reason I am stuck on the lasts! As far as being a parent goes, I am beyond lucky and trust me, I know it. Three fantastic human beings are no small feat, just wish they weren't quite so grown. Miss the days of skinned knees and needing kisses to make it better. Not to mention the family dinners with a few wanna be kids hanging out, Scout meetings, and soccer matches. At the time, I didn't realize how fast it was going by and now, it seems as if I blinked and all of sudden I have three adult children with lives of their own. Like I said, where does the time go?
