Time flies, eh?

Today while I was siting outside the school waiting to pick up the boys It occurred to me that in two more years I would have three kids in this school. And then? two years after that I would be back to having only two in the elementary again.

Right now, at eight and in grade three, RM still needs an adult to run roughshod over his butt to get his homework completed, but I assume (and hope) that by the time he is in High School, he will have developed enough of a work ethic that he will get it done on his own. When that time comes, we are ready for it, you see, when we built their bedrooms we built in an alcove perfect for a desk. Don't get me wrong, the spot isn't big enough for somehting like an executive desk, But there is enough room for a lamp and all the things he will need ( pencils, rulers, calculators ect.) to get his homework done.

I kind of wish though, that we had wired in some of those wall lights right then, because that would be perfect for when they have homework, plus it would add a lot more light to their rooms - which with their tiny basement windows, is very little!
