With my daughter entering high school, I began considering how our lives will change in the comming years when they start to move on and enter college. As a result, I began making an actuary table so I'd know when graduations from 8th grade, high school and college were happening.
The results indicated the need to establish a few rules.
1) Owing to the birthday overload that smothers March through May, resumes in July and extends through the rest of the year, please, no life changing memorable events in January, February or June.
2) Graduations from 8th grade, high school and college, confirmations, first communions will preclude any other celebrations in all years except 2017 and 2028.
3) Those two years, I'm declaring off limits so your father and I can catch our breath.
Public Service Announcement: over the next 20 years, if you like to party, get on the guest list now. If' your're a family friend and you'ld be on the guest list already, fair warning, pace yourself.
Things will slow down around 2030, when Paul is 22, just in time for our 40th wedding anniversary. I will be 64 and finally able to start saving for my retirement.
In 2031, all children will be out of the house and educated through College. They may then feel free to marry.

Good luck with those teenage years. I had seven teenagers at the same time. I LOVED those years!
This is a great calculation! I want to do mine, but I have too many theoretical future children to add in.
I wanna be on the guest list!!!
