Growing up...

....is hard to do.
Child number two is contemplating leaving school in a few months time. A final set of exam hurdles to get over and then university lies ahead. It'll mean big changes - among them leaving her little dog behind at home with her parents while she stretches her wings and leaves the nest for the first time. It'll mean big changes at home too. Two of us rattling about the house. Gosh. It's not here quite yet, but it's definitely well over the horizon and heading towards us at full speed. Times they are a changing. And it's a bit scary for all of us.
