My son's journey through school: The middle school years begin.

It began on August 22, 2011.  My 11-year old son Sean started as a 6th grader at the Union 6th and 7th Grade Center.

It's probably a bigger deal for me than it is for him but I am still buzzing about it a week later.  Last night, his mother and I attended open house at the school and joined the PTA.  That's how jazzed I am about it all.

Part of the reason why I am like this is because I graduated from Union High School in 1987.   In 2018 he will walk across the same stage and accept his diploma 31 years after I did.  I am very happy about that. 

I just thought I'd mention it in a brief blog entry.  There will be more to come..
