The Sign Is Out For All To See...

The sign is out on the front lawn for all to see. Yes, my oldest son is graduating from high school and I can hardly believe it. The once little boy is now a young man whose 6'3" frame towers over me. All mothers remember that first day of kindergarten, holding tightly onto their little ones hand and walking them into their classroom. WOW... it seems it was yesterday. I can see it so vividly in my mind. As I write this I feel a tough at my heart, bringing to mind those cherished memories.
After selecting the perfect place to display the sign, I ran into the house and asked Brandon to take a photo. He stood proudly, wearing his favorite t-shirt (he will be attending The University of Michigan Dearborn) next year.
The count down is on. Only 7 days of school left and then I will be the mother of a high school grad! I better get to work today. Lots of things to get ready for the party. The centerpieces are complete and so are the invitations. I will share my creations with you next week. It's a beautiful day in Michigan today. Hope your day is sunny!

What an exciting time. You are so excited for them but it seems so hard to believe it's time for them to fly. Our daughter graduated last year and I can't believe I survived her first year in college but one thing I know for sure as much has God has plans for our children he still has plans for us!! Have a wonderful week.

PS love the sign and maybe I can get our school to do that!!
