One More Graduate

It was Friday night and the cap and gown was ready to be worn by my son. He was graduating from high school!

As I stood there ironing the many creases in the paper thin gown, I reflected on the many hours of painful school work and struggle to keep him focus on what really was important at the time. I also wondered if during the ceremony he would try to be silly or rise to the occasion and act like an adult? Many emotions ran through my mind as I tried to finish the task of making it a smooth, clean gown. Before I knew it, my husband and I were standing next to our son, on stage, handing him his diploma.

What a wonderful night it was and our son continues to amaze me as the page has now turned. He is acting like an adult!

Seriously! Adult?!?!
