Last night I sat down at my kitchen table and filled out Princess E's application to kindergarten.
Sob.
Are you kidding me that this kid is old enough for kindergarten? What just happened to the past five years? Global warming - I dunno (although the Chinese might argue today that the opposite is true). Vulcan time warp sucking years away at an alarming rate - abso-flippin-lutely.
My friend Marijean is going through the exact same thing, although at a different level - her son has just turned 18 and is about to graduate from high school. I'm betting Mj will totally back me up on the Vulcan time warp thing - and she and I will be sobbing on the phone together next fall as she drops The Boy off at college and I drop the princess off at the big K.
I'm going to start gathering my drown-my-sorrows-in-chocolate party now. Mj, expect a UPS delivery from me next fall - we'll stuff ourselves and destroy wads of tissues (along with our waistlines) together.

I'm going to Sams to buy tissues. We should make a list of movies to watch/not watch and books to read/not read as our little ones leave us. For example, Animal House/Ordinary People; A Separate Peace/Love You Forever, etc.
PS -- I have not given up on the idea of homeschooling for college.
