My younger son is in his senior year, and thus September still feels like "back to the books" for me. Last night, I went to "Senior Night" where we were given marching orders on the myriad of details surrounding college applications. I have been down this road before, but I still think the level of abject anxiety in that room was pretty high. A friend once wisely told me that all we want for our children is that they are not disappointed. It's so very true.
