No time

I never get on this thing. I just don't have the time. I am supposed to be working on a huge-o project right now. But I'm taking a study break. It's not due until next Thursday, so I have some time, right? :) So, what's going on lately? Let me fill you in.

Jack turned one!! And he's walking. And he's getting a mouthful of teeth. I don't think I was ready for this to happen all at once. It just blows me away how fast things go. I know everyone says that, but you never really understand until you're a parent. It amazes me how fast he learns. Today I was getting the kitchen ready to be swept and mopped. I got out the broom and dustpan before I moved the furniture, so I set it down. Jack picked them both up and started "sweeping" the floor! (Does that tell you how much I clean?!?!) He pushed that broom all over the floor and every once in a while, he would squat down and put the dustpan on the floor. He is a little imitator. But so sweet!

Speaking of school... I graduate in two months! (knock on wood) This part of my life is flying by as well. Well, not the first few years of college, but definitely this last semester! I am so glad to be able to see the end. But then again, I desperately want to go to law school. That whole can of worms is the makings for another blog post...

And me graduating means us moving. I have such mixed feelings on this one. I am very much looking forward to going and seeing new places, and starting our lives together. I am thrilled at the fact that we will really be on our own, which means we are really the parents, really in charge, really able to make the decisions that affect our lives. It's not that we don't do all of these things now, it's just that I am so much connected to my family- my parents. And I still feel like the kid. I don't know why... But I am excited to begin our life as the Hunt's, not as Will's son or Bethany's sister, ya know?
On the other hand, I am so sad to leave. I have made some remarkable friends here, mainly in the past year. And the thought of leaving them and leaving our friendships just kills me. I mean, there's always facebook and blogger, but that's not really involved friendship, which is what I have now. And I understand I will meet many people along the way, but I also like the ones right here.
Oh yes, and then there's the terrified part. haha. It's just a small small sliver, but come on, who wouldn't be? Raising a family in a place you've never lived, around people you don't know, in an environment you know hardly anything about (USMC)?? Yeah, a little scary.

Ah, saved by the scream. It's the bathtime scream...The kiddo calls. Night.
