The Keys family has survived another school year. For Andrew, it is his next to last year. He spent his afternoon after finals over at the recruiter station finishing up his paperwork for his enlistment. He came home yesterday afternoon to get the last required signatures from me since he is still 17. He missed one place when she was going over the paperwork with me, so of course I wound up with a picture of my baby signing away the next few years of his life after he finishes high school...
This took place after a very emotional elementary school graduation. Chris has been very lucky to be with just a great group of kids since he began school at Creekside in first grade. Most of these kids will be attending the same middle school with him in the fall. A couple of them will be separated until they get to high school. I will miss being with those kids. It has been alot of fun and they are just an extremely good group of kids. We have been so lucky with him, at least up to this point. I just hope that they can keep the kind of love that they really seem to have for each other over the remaining 7 years that these kids have had for the last 6.
9 days until the Disney trip of 08 as I am sure that it will be referred to for the rest of our lives. I am looking forward to getting myself to a place where I can live in fantasy for a bit and forget about all of the transitions that are going on in our lives!
