I'm waiting for my baby to come kiss me goodbye before she goes to college. She and her dad are driving to Portland today and tomorrow. For a going-away present I covered a cigar box with candy wrappers and filled it with stationery, envelopes, an address book, stamps, and a pen. I also got her a copy of Pamela Dean's Tam Lin. I'm not sure about what message that sends, although I suppose "Have a magical time, and don't get pregnant if you can possibly help it" isn't really a bad one.
And this is my other baby's second week of high school. They grow up so fast!
