Well the big week has finally arrived…it’s time for grad hats and jet planes! No one would typically plan to move out of their house and travel internationally on the same week their youngest child graduates from high school, but here I am.

My baby girl will walk across the stage tomorrow and then we’re off to Florida a few days after. I’m so proud of her and equally nostalgic at the same time. Quite frankly, I haven’t had the time to emotional process everything because I’ve been too busy with the 5,000 other things I have to get done.

Still, I’ve done my best to make these last days all about her. I’m sure the full weight of everything will eventually hit when I have a few minutes to sit and think.

If you are finding yourself wrestling with a particularly busy season, make sure you check out How To Survive A Busy Season for some tips on how to make it through with your sanity intact.
