It is finals week. It's both joyous, as it marks the end of the semester and the beginning of a much-needed two week break, and stressful, as it means I have tons to do before leaving for Michigan in less than a week. This year my boys have finals as well. I'm very nervous for them and I've become a nag about studying - which I hate, but I recognize that, unfortunately, is my nature when I'm not in control of the situation. They say acknowledgment is the first step to recovery... however, I have a feeling it's probably going to be the only step until they have graduated.
I also met my newest niece yesterday and, just like her sisters, she's beautiful. I admire my sisters-in-law for being such great mothers but I have to confess that I'm not envious. Although I suggested (3/4 kidding) to Kasey that having another child would keep us young, I sat tonight on the couch while Koll made dinner, Oksana served it, and Alex cleaned up and realized I'm quite content to just have teenagers. At least for now. :-) I reserve my prerogative to change my mind at a later date.
