When did they grow up?!  Their grade school years will come to an end soon and middle school here we come.  : - ((  I'm going to miss my mornings with them.  The handing out their clothes, the hurrying getting them in the car, the McDonald's drive thru and the, them getting my coffee.  : - )  After grade school Mike takes over and takes the older kids to school.  Yes, I'll now have Pryor and Boone, but I'll miss these guys.... a lot... a ton.  DSCN8271
