Elayna begins her first day of seventh grade today.

That seems, in the words of the immortal Ralph Wiggum, umpossible.

Just six months and a handful of days until my little girl is officially a teenager.

Some people think all teachers are either saints or lunatics.

Teachers know that middle-school teachers are all saints or lunatics.

I love your kid, but I'll teach her down the road. ;)

I'm a high school teacher, and I think they're both saints and lunatics. I taught freshmen for the first time last year, and oh my lord were they insane. I was used to juniors, and these 9th graders were like someone had given a bunch of monkeys crack and let them loose in my room.

Oh, I figured out how Elayna managed to be in Middle School a year ahead of alyveritya, despite being three months younger:

My daughter's school starts "Middle School" in seventh grade.

Thus endeth the confusion.

My daughter started her sophomore year in high school last week.

I see college trips in the near distance, drawing ever closer.

I see drivers licenses and higher insurance premiums approaching.

I see her planning to watch "Torchwood" on BBC America this weekend.

Oops.
