This past week, there were a couple of graduations in our household.  Jack, my youngest, graduated from kindergarten.  They had a sing a long and later we went to their classroom where they showed the parents the portfolios they have been working on all year.  Jack has come a long way since September.  He didn’t have the cap and gown he had when he graduated from preschool but it was still special.  Both my husband and I attended.

Then my oldest Kyle graduated from 5th grade.  They had lots of awards and then they also sang some songs.  Later they had a pizza party outside.  It’s still hard to believe that my son who it seems just yesterday when we attended HIS kindergarten celebration, is going into middle school this September.

Then it will be high school and he will be driving!  Then will he leave home?  I wonder about that.  My brother still has his almost 25 year old son living with him along with his 19 and 20 year old daughters.  I guess only time will tell.

This is also the only year that Kyle and Jack were in school together.  Now they will be in separate schools until they graduate from high school.

Middle school will be a new experience for both Kyle and me.   I never went to middle school.  My elementary went from Kindergarten through 8th grade and then there was high school.

Time really does fly by.
