I’m always getting little reminders of how fast time really moves. ¬†Sure it seems like forever sitting in the office some days to simply get from lunchtime to leaving time. ¬†Having kids has really emphasized for me how fast it is moving. ¬†I blinked again. ¬†This happened on Saturday:

The monkeys have officially graduated from Pre-K.  They will be starting Kindergarten in the fall.  I could swear they were both still little tiny babies.

I’m proud of the little people that they are turning into. ¬†

    Congrats to the graduates! Tell me about it. I can’t beleive that Liam will be in 4th grade next year. It seems like I just finished 4th grade myself. Time does fly.

    A two hour ceremony! Ye gods, what are these people thinking? I am impressed that your two lasted through it — mine barely squeaked through an hour that included ant hats and marshmallow throwing. But they sure are cute in those hats and gowns!

    More than cute! And yeah, they just keep growing and growing. I remember them in strollers, FPS.

    Congrats on the graduates. It only goes faster the older they get. What little cuties they are!

    I remember the first time I met you, at Rhinebeck, and they were babies in the stroller! Blink again and you’ll be taking pics of their college graduation! Ask me how I know….

    Next thing you know, the monkeys will be graduating from high school!
    I am working on a 54 stitch variant of the mini mochi rainbow sock, btw….

    I am interested in hearing more about your sock machine, such as your asking price, how old is your machine, does it run smoothly?

    Curiously yours,
