My grandson, N, starts 7th grade today. Yeah, I don't know how that happened, either. It really does seem like yesterday that he was a 3 year old.
I think back to my own 7th grade experience, and I know he is in for big changes this year. Although he and I are the same height today, he'll be taller than me by the end of the school year. His voice may change. He will develop new interests. He will become a teenager.
His older sister, E, is going to London for the fall semester. She is a junior in college, and I'm looking forward to her having a great and wondrous time. She'll be back at Christmas when she will be older, wiser, and more worldly. I will be in awe of her when she returns. I'm in awe of her now.
These two! My heart is full of love.
They do grow up so quickly, don't they?! My oldest grandkids are 19 and 17 - the older is through with high school and not going to college, the other is a senior in high school and then she will be done, too! I wonder what jobs will look good to them.
ReplyDeleteI have a young group of grandkids, too, grades 3rd, 2nd, 1st, K, and 9 months old! Some live near but some are far! I love them all.
Oh what stories you will hear! Safe travels and great adventures to all.
ReplyDeleteI envy the adventures they each have coming.
