What It’s Been Like Having a Senior Two Years in a Row
Today’s episode is on a topic that was requested by a follower! Jesse and I share what it’s been like navigating back-to-back senior years with our daughters, Kathrynne and Kaitlynn! It has been a whirlwind of emotions and logistics and Jesse and I are opening up about our experiences – the highs, the challenges, the blessings, and the unexpected lessons that we have learned along the way.
Jesse and I share things we learned the hard way, how it’s been different for each daughter, what has been easier about going through senior year the second time, and just fun insider information about the experiences that we haven’t shared elsewhere online.
Whether you have a senior or a child in high school or just are curious what we’ve learned, I hope that you enjoy listening to us share about our experiences these past two years!
