Happy New Year all! To celebrate the end of a decade, we have these wonderful snapshots, which you shall receive about one a day! It's all the moments you might have wanted to see but couldn't be fit into the stories. Visits to Addison, friends meeting family, babys' firsts, and their meeting with Michael, it's all here! The timing is approximate, we planned this out after writing Heart Trouble, so we fit things in as best we could.

"Most people experience this when they're sophomores." Carter takes a seat in the classroom after school and practice, "not seniors."

"Yeah, well, we're not exactly normal seniors." Liam takes the seat beside her. "Just like next year we won't exactly be normal college freshman."

"Yeah, most college freshmen have been driving for two years by the time they start school; we'll have been driving for two months. I actually feel embarrassed to be here." She looks around the room at the boys and girls that are slowly filling the room. She nods to a few members of the volleyball and soccer teams as they enter, fighting the urge to slouch down in her chair. "We're seniors surrounded by sophomores."

"Would you rather be a sophomore and feel like a moron because you're two years ahead of your peers academically and being held back?" Liam is forever the logical one… they aren't really certain who he inherited that from.

"That never would have happened. Mom and Mama would have moved us ahead, or at the very least joint enrolled us or argued for us to take a few extra AP classes. But that's not the point."

"So what is the point?" He greets a fellow football player before returning his attention to his sister.

"My point is, intellectually we're seniors – no, intellectually we're college sophomores – but we're forced to be dumbed down in this one arena."

"Mind may be fully developed but biologically, still children. Ergo kept with the sophomores." The two are forced into silence when the instructor enters the room and writes his name on the board.
