Movin' Out


After several months of advance warning, I'm still having a hard time coming to grips with something: Sons 1A and 1B moved out! They found a cute little apartment in the city, packed their bags, and headed out. The nerve!

Well, the truth is, we've always told our kids that they shouldn't be hanging around the house for too long once they get to be young adults. (Somehow I've always felt that would stunt their social lives, not to mention our financial reserves!) But when the time actually came for them to go, it was a little harder than I anticipated.

Here's wishing them the best as they embark on this new phase in their lives!



(And boys, if you're reading this, please get a phone. I'm only prepared to cut the apron stings, not throw them away entirely!)

Aw that's a cute picture of them! Remember when 1A grew his hair out... circa 2006 if I remember correctly???

Yea, I kind of always like that hairstyle. You're right about the year -- it was their H.S. grad. They look pretty happy to be graduating, eh?

Hey are you guys having fun? How do the kids like the snorkeling?
