Indeed. And I am already a great aunt and a grand godmother (or perhaps a god grandmother? Great god! mother?) Yet friends who have older kids are often still startled when they hear my guy's off to college next year (knock on wood). It must be that other peoples' kids age faster than our own. I can think of several likely reasons for this, not least of which is that we aren't paying as much attention... and we didn't have to pay for all the food. Is the empty nest all it's cracked up to be?
