We have supported kids in college for 14 years (many of those years, two kids). Our youngest graduates next May, so there is light at the end of the financial tunnel. Already planning a big vacation!

Oldest is now an Aggie Engineering grad.

What the hell kind of parent were you?

For real though, congrats on having kids who look like they are on their way to becoming productive members of society.

We just moved our oldest daughter in this past week. Not too far, but far enough. 4 hours away. I had no idea it was going to be as hard as it was. Maybe since she is the oldest? Youngest daughter is a sophomore this year. It’s going to be different around here for sure.

3 kids in college and the youngest isn't even old enough to drive? Yikes. Good luck with that.

Only way I’m letting them go to Bama for undergrad is if they pay for everything

Well, pretty close. Those Bammers offer generous scholarships to out-of-staters. PLUS, it's not dependent on the state politicians fighting every year on how much to cut TOPS.
