[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think that it's more truthful to say cherish your little sweet cute kids - the kids themselves at the younger sweet ages, because when they become teens and are arguing and slamming doors they're not cute. When they start driving and partying and having sex, even less cute, more worry.[/quote] To me, time felt like it was moving either slowly or normally until each of our kids hit sixth grade. Then it felt like life went on turbo speed. Sixth grade was suddenly ninth grade. It literally felt like the snap of a finger with all of our kids. Middle school was the blink of an eye. Ninth grade was suddenly eleventh grade -- driving and SATs. Then twelfth grade, applying to colleges in the fall, hearing back in the winter, and spending the spring gearing up to leave. 6-12 grades fly by.[/quote]
