Kids are finally done with high school!

[B_and_D]

As of today, both of my kids are officially out of high school. I can't describe how wonderful it feels! I feel so free!

I'll feel even better when they have both graduated from college and have their first real jobs!

Now I really have something to look forward to!

Plus it's summer and time to go camping!

HOORAY!!!!!!!

congrats!!!
I have a 6 year old, so I am just getting started.....woohoo....

B and D: Congrats...today is the worst you will ever feel!!! It only gets better! Few things in this world are as good as adult kids...

Same Here, My Daughter Is Finishing Kindergarten This Month So I Have A Looong Way To Go

Lest y'all get too excited about an empty nest, here's how the cycle works:

When your kids are young you can tell them what to do, when to do it, and expect them to obey

Then they turn to teens and you can nudge, encourage, but it's tougher to influence.

Then they go off to college, get married, get a job and you think you're home free. They're on their own!

Then they lose their job, get divorced, and move back in with you. You, in turn, tell them what to do, when to do it, and expect them to obey!

I'd like to see them do that if we're full-timing in an RV, LOL!
