Turning 18



K turned 18 recently.  He won't be of drinking age until 19 in Ontario.  But he can now skip, or drop classes without parental permission, and he is not obligated to show me his marks I think the teacher says.  He is a good kid, and doesn't smoke or do drugs to my knowledge.  He realizes the importance of school.

Our answering machine broke and so did our kettle.  A testament to the passage of time!

Once our children left high school, I don't think I saw their grades. We just assumed they were doing well. Well... At least my daughter was. Our son had to take more time to mature, but is doing great now.

Happy Birthday to K!!!
