Graduation

I know it's been said.

Hundreds of times I have read it.

I have even said it dozens myself,

but really..

How did we get to this place?

It was Em's 8th grade graduation on Thursday.

 It truly was just yesterday that she was emptying out the tupperware in her cabinet the way Anna Mei does.

 My heart I love this girl who was the first to make me a momma.

 She is growing up way too fast.

 She is blessed to attend a great christian school and have amazing wonderful friends.  We are grateful for these spectacular young ladies and their incredible character.

 It won't be long and she will be handed her high school diploma.  In fact, the other day Daddy was sharing that the college he visited that particular day would be a great fit for our girl.  I told him to be quiet as I could not think of this baby leaving the nest.  Though I know all to well that soon she must.

 Anna Mei had to attend as it is too soon to leave her.  She was a patient girl as long as she had her goldfish crackers.  What a beautiful night to celebrate our oldest treasure.  We are proud of her and pray God continues to develop her for His purposes.
