I started to make a lunch for tomorrow, the next to last full day of school, and I had a moment. I realized that as annoying as it can be on busy days to need to make a lunch and snack before I can call it a night - before I know it this will end. For now, just for the summer, but at some point there won't be lunches to pack.
I am just a few days away from having a second grader. That doesn't sound bad, but 8 is looming, half way to driving! She's so tall and her voice is even changing. She is, by far, not a little girl any more. Slow down.
