Anticipation- Is this normal?

I have no idea how this idea came to mind but for some reason I started jotting down the grades of my children when the babies start Kindergarten in 3 years.

Wyn 11th
Jo 8th
Gab 6th
Jed 3rd
Babies K

I couldn't stop... I was consumed by checking what grades I would have. It looked so wonderful to me as the grades grew.....
