The ending was definitely rather sudden. The first year was so leisurely laid out before you, and then everything just flew from there--though that's kind of how my memory on college works, actually. I remember the first year in great detail and the rest in little pieces. It worked, and I saw it coming, but it still just kind of hits you.
I think it would be very easy for your kids to have that sort of childhood just because of who you are and how much you love books and words. You would encourage imagination and childlike adventure. To an extent, it seems like you had at least a trace of it for yourself--anybody who loves books as much as we do, and loved them so much when young--also as we did, couldn't help but have at least a trace of it.
