It should be quite an experience! 

I look forward to hearing all about it.

Well, maybe not since I am getting ready for a big garage sale this weekend. 

I'll  just have two less kids in the way as I organize. 

I just know it's a good thing I don't have to get up every morning and get 3 people out the door, fed & dressed & happy by 7AM!
