As inevitably happens, summer came to an end. I was sad to send these kids off to school again. But, I'm always excited for them and the new experiences they will have.
As usual, I snapped a quick photo of each of the kids as they left on the first day. Sarah wore her Europe dress.

| Sarah - Senior |
 |
| Rachel - Sophomore |
 |
| Ben - 7th grade |
 |
| Kate - 4th grade |
 |
| William - Kindergarten |
I got William settled into his class. He seemed a bit overwhelmed, but has adjusted well.
And, so there it is. A new era in my life is beginning. For the first time in 17 years, I have a few hours in the day when I get to decide how to spend my time. No preschool pick-ups, no nap times, no entertaining toddlers, and feeding babies. But don't worry, I have plenty to do! I've increased my work hours to 12 hours a week. I'm volunteering at school. Grocery shopping, laundry, house cleaning, and more house cleaning. Four and a half hours a day just isn't nearly enough!
