Lasts

There have been and will be a lot of "lasts" this year (L's senior year), some bitter and some sweet and some bitter AND sweet at the same time. With my oldest, most of the "lasts" during his senior year were sweet--so glad to put paid to all those chapters of his life (a feeling he shared) and so elated at the end of the year when he actually graduated. So this is my first time to swing on the pendulum from bitter to sweet almost in the same experience or moment. Tuesday was L's last Evening in Excellence.  Bittersweet it was.
