After almost 10 years, another maybe 4 or 5 will go quickly. You definitely made the right decision.

Bless you M. Elizabeth. You certainly have your place in heaven reserved. Not only do they grow up but the really grow up fast. My oldest son turned 55 last year and it seems like yesterday that I was fixing up his room with his two brothers (3 in a room and also 3 sisters). Now the house is empty and quiet and yes, I do have a large beautiful sewing room in the attic. Sigh!!!
