My oldest is home for a little bit but reports back to VMI next Friday for his freshman year. He was there all summer taking a class and practicing with the basketball team. Division one basketball is no joke. All summer he had 8:00 small group workouts, 9:45 class, 2:00 lift, 3:15 study hall, and a team practice a couple days a week at either 5:00 or 6:00.
My youngest is a rising junior and he’s going to be attending a boarding prep school this year for basketball and academics. He leaves August 28. He has three D1 offers so far. I’m told there will be a lot more eventually. Fingers are crossed.
We will be empty-nesters two years early. Hard to believe. It’s going to be weird without the boys here.
