Last Day of 8th Grade

Oh time, you crazy construct. Not long ago we had elementary schoolers, or at least one elementary schooler. Then I guess we had a middle and a high schooler for a bit, and now here we are saying the full family goodbye to days at the LV. Never again will we have to wait in that Dante's inner circle of a Friday pick up line. Time spent on the LV campus now will be for sports and no longer the day in and day out of school life. The LV was never my home campus, but Z spent 5 years there and A spent 9, so in total it was 10 years of our collective lives. That's not nothing. I am very much looking forward to A's adventures on the US campus, both for all of the high school of it but also its accessibility (unless you are a cello player who is bringing an instrument back and forth? ;) is SO MUCH easier for independent, walking oriented kiddos (like A and A). And also, while not pictured, Z completed their first year at Oberlin so we'll have a returning to college kiddo (no longer new to college, but a seasoned sophomore!) this fall, too. One in high school, one in college. Crazy indeed.
