I cant believe so many of us have kids graduating this year. My "baby" graduated at beginning of this month.
Um...odd ball here...BUT my nephew got married last year....and another one next year. Yup I'm the youngin' of my siblings, like my sister still treats me like her kid.
Well, I'm the oldest of the siblings (loved it growing up, but now, not so much), and my baby brother (who's 8 years younger than me) became a grandpa yesterday. Talk about making me feel ancient!

I'm an only kiddo...so yep. It kind of sucks quite frankly. I always wanted siblings....that's why I had three kids. Didn't want them to be flying solo.
That's just my take on being an only child...lots of only kiddos love it. I just didn't...and now that my parents are aging...I really don't.
I had 2 graduate university last year a double whammy and started working this year. Then my youngest graduated high school and it was all at Xmas time. So it was soo busy. But exciting at the same time. 👩🎓Nay I’m the eldest too with an 8 year age gap to the youngest. But there is 3 in between. My mum was crazy had 4 children in 4 years then another 31/2 years later.
Congrats to all your graduates! It's exciting to see them start a new chapter...I have one more year before Kalyn starts hs...I'm the youngest of 3, 8 yrs younger than my sister with a brother in between...my brother doesn't have kids and neither does my SIL, so our immediate fam is small...btw, I haven't been to a wedding in YEARS! lol...

Not really, my sister just happens to be 10 years older...
Congrats to all the grads! How fun yet bittersweet. :)I'm with you, Ela. Youngest, except I'm from a huge "Yours, Mine and Ours" family. My dad, 8 kids, my mom, 3, both of them, me. :D
My sister-in-law was pregnant when my mom was pregnant with me so I was an aunt at 5 months of age.

Teri wrote: "I'm 2 hrs. away at most but dang, it sure rolled!"I'm a lot more than two hours (more like 5 and a half hours), so I didn't feel it. Been through enough of them to know. :D I'm glad you weren't too close.
Not enough time x a way too large TBR list / squirreling + I want to read it RIGHT NOW = STRESS! I just needed to vent this cause I'm questioning myself for book hunting today when I have SO many great books on my list that I want to read immediately! EEK! :-)
N.N. Britt, the author I'm editing for right now, lives right outside of L.A. and it scared the crap out of her. And speaking of her, this book she's written is AWESOME! Y'all have to read it. Ohhh the angst! I was crying so much when I was editing that I couldn't even see the screen! If any of you read Rapture, it's same author.
SeveranceAnd now I'm free for a day or two and I don't know what to read first!
