Things I Have Done Recently That Prove That I Am Totally And Completely Ready For Youngest Child To Be Done With High School, The List:

Throwback to May 7, 2015

1. I have “liked” his college’s Facebook page.

2. I have added his college’s 2015-16 calendar to the family calendar, so I know when his spring break will be.

3. I regularly check the Parent Portal not to make sure his grades are strong, but to assure myself that he is passing all his classes.

4. I have found our family copy of The Naked Roommate, so that Youngest Child can start reading it.

5. I have purchased a stapler and a hole puncher for his desk in the dorm.

6. I have started to consider the best color to re-paint the walls of the guest room, err, I mean his bedroom.

7. I am actively counting down the days in a gleeful fashion (yay yay yay 7 more days of classes and yippee 3 days of exams and hooray it’s over!)

8. I am drinking more, because I heard that helps ease the pain of denial.
