Last night, sitting in the high school auditorium waiting for my son's band concert to begin, I had another thought about my impending emptynester status. I've had a lot of those lately.

This one was about school programs (and soccer, baseball and hockey games, and marching band performances, and solo and emsemble competitions). Aaron's a junior in high school, and I started going to things like this when my older son was three, in preschool, playing a gray squirrel complete with bushy tail. Doing the math, I realized that by the time it's over next year I'll have been attending these things for 20 years.
