Graduations

Wow, another school year is ending.  And my nest is emptying faster than I had expected. Lars, now 24, started the trend by moving to a nearby apt. just after his college graduation in 2005.  Rebecca graduated last year from from Oklahoma Baptist University (1400 miles away from us) and then went to Nairobi, Kenya (a bajillion miles away) to teach in a Christian school. Saturday, May 10, our third child, Justus, graduated from Liberty University and is staying in the Lynchburg area.  Our fourth, Nate, just finishing his 2nd year at Frostburg State University in Western Maryland, is also moving out of the house because he is taking an off-campus apt. there. And #5, Evangeline, may be going to Frostburg in the fall. My babies will be in 9th and 10th grade. And I still want to fingerpaint, play with math manipulatives and watch praying mantises hatch. (Sigh)

I know what you mean. My oldest is already 18. THe years go by so fast and there is so much I still want to do with my oldest. Getting him through Chemistry next year is not one of the things either!
