Meagan informed me the day before the first day of school that this was her "last first day of high school" It made me cry. I can not believe in only a few short months she too will be off to college. How did this happen so fast? I will miss her and all of our mommy-daughter talks. I will miss her hugs, jokes and her smile. She always knows how to make me laugh.
So when Meagan pointed out it was her last first day Matthew says "oooh it is my last first day too. I told him it wasn't and to knock it off. He says "mom, tomorrow is my last first day of middle school. Next year I will be in High School." Whaaaaaat how did that happen. How is it possible that my BABY will be in high school???????????? It was hard when he left elementary school and started middle school but him moving up to high school is going to kill me. I will be a BASKET CASE knowing that in only four short years he too will be moving out and going to college. This kid has his whole college life all planned out. Where he wants to go, how he wants to get there and how it is going to get paid for.
Does anyone know how to put a freeze on life? Every time I think of Meg leaving to go away to school I cry. I have not done well with the first two leaving, just ask them :) I am proud that we have raised children who want to go out and face the world but I just am not ready for them to do so, dang it!
Meagan's last "First Day" of High School. She was excited for school to start so she could get on with her senior year and all the excitement and activities it brings.
Matthew's last "First Day" of middle school. Next year he will attend the High School where Dennis teaches. I can not believe how quickly time has gone.
Off to meet the bus. Matt would rather be back in bed. Meagan was ready to go waaay ahead of time. She was so nervous it was funny.
