You Know You Are Getting Old...

...when summers fly by as quickly as it did this year.  Remember the lazy days of summer when we were kids and it seemed as if we would never get old?  Remember when 40 seemed ancient?  What grand times!  Now, summers are so different.  The good thing about home schooling is that we can make them last just a bit longer.  But, yesterday, we headed to co-op to get the children's pictures taken.  Co-op does not start until September, but they all look forward to going back every semester.  Don't you just love these fake smiles, especially Jack's?

Seth is not participating in co-op this year.  I'm sure he will be greatly missed!  We have big plans to graduate him a bit early if at all possible.  He hopes to join the military this time next year.
