Who Let My Baby Brother Grow Up?

I got back from Texas on Friday morning just in time to drive to my parents' house for my baby brother, Scott's, high school graduation and 18th birthday. I'm not sure when he grew up. I'm pretty sure it was just last week that I graduated from high school and he graduated from kindergarten. We had a freshman in college and a first grader that year in our family. Now Scott is the freshman and my nephew Tell is off to start kindergarten.
All in all the graduation was entirely typical. I'll post some pictures of it when someone shares them with me. Scott leaves for BYU-I on Wednesday for summer and fall terms. That leaves little baby Stephie at home with Mom alone for the summer. Of course "Little Baby Stephie" is sixteen and can drive now, but it doesn't change the fact that she's the baby of the family. She will actually be spending most of her summer off at various summer camps, starting tomorrow. Which means Mom will be an emptynester for the first time in thirty years. Anyone who knows Mom well knows that her free time equates to redecorating. Natalie and I think she will probably paint her bedroom ceiling first. (Something she's been wanting to do for years). Either that or get another dog... (yeah right)
