Commencments...and a peek into the future!

God bless our 2009 High School Graduates!

Tonight, Meghan, Sara and I went to the High School commencement exercises with our friends, the William's. This graduation ceremony was thru the PA Homeschoolers, and it was the first one we've ever attended. Meghan and Sara will be graduating thru this agency in 2011 and 2012...so we wanted to check it out. More importantly....some of our dearest friends were graduating and we wanted to support and celebrate with them!


Oh, how teary eyed I was thru the whole ceremony! First, my friend, Krista's son, Wes gave a wonderful speech! What a great speaker he is...and he gave such glory to God and credit to his mom! Then....other graduates either played a musical instrument, gave a speech, some read poems or sang songs...and then my friend, Ranea's daughter, Alaina gave the last speech.....the girls and I were all choked up...she did a great job as well. Then it was time to have the families of the graduates come up on stage and present the diploma to each graduate. It was touching! Especially imagining us doing this in only 2 more years with Meghan! Time is going so fast!


Afterward lots of hugs and picture taking....the 6 of us headed to Pages Dairy for some delicious icecream....then we headed home.

~It was a great night! I was glad that we went...to support and celebrate with special friends, and to see what it will be like in only 2 years for Meghan and 3 years for Sara...off for some sleep before finishing a special graduation gift...and some special goodies for the party! Goodnight! ~Sue~
