With that being said I am going to be a little bit more limited posting on my blog for the next couple of weeks. My son is graduating from high school on May 12th and the next couple of weeks are going to be pretty hectic. This week is his last week of school and we have banquets, award ceremonies and one last band concert to attend in the evenings this week. Family starts coming in next week and we'll wrap everything up with a big party on the 14th!
I hate to post without a picture so here's a couple of photos of my soon-to-be graduate. The first one is his first day of Kindergarten in the fall of 1997 and the second one was just a couple of weeks ago before he left for Prom. I had to laugh when I compared the two pictures.....he still likes to stand with his hands in his pockets!
Enjoy your week.
Jane
What a good looking son!
ReplyDeleteGlad your eye is doing better. You have lots of busyness and fun ahead!
So glad you are doing better, Jane! ENJOY this special (and emotional) time in life...you must be VERY proud!!

ReplyDeleteHi Jane! I'm so glad your feeling better! I love the pictures of your son, so adorable as a kindergartener and now a handsome young man. You are getting better just in time to be crazy busy! Graduation for us is June 7 and the parties not until the 26th so I have a little time. I have been trying to do a little bit here and there to get ready but Cam drove home from school wearing his cap last week and it caught me off guard. Lets just say I had to compose myself before I told him hello. Where does the time go? Good luck with yours, and am so glad your on the mend, Theresa

Congratulations to your handsome son...glad that your eye is healing.
ReplyDeleteCongrats to you and your son! I love those two pictures. It is funny how some things never change. My husband still stands the same way he did as a child - with his back arched and his chest sticking out! Have a great time at all your festivities!
ReplyDeleteHe has the same face, so cute.
ReplyDeleteI have always asked, which is the busiest time of the year, Christmas or the end of the school year?
Hang in there.
Oh your son is so handsome! We are doing the same thing right now. Graduation is May 14th for my youngest son.
ReplyDeleteVery sweet picture. My youngest son will also be a graduate this year. Everyone will now be out of high school. Wishing the best to your son and his future.

See what happens when I take a few weeks off to move? You son grows up, you get an ulcer and it almost heals....did I miss anything else?
ReplyDeleteCongrats to your son and I wish you and your eye the best. (Just don't put it on the stove;)
Welcome back Jane! Your baby is graduating, mine will be next year and I know we will be busy, busy. He starts on his Eagle project the end of this month, because I didn't want it added on to his senior year.
ReplyDeleteVery sweet photos.....enjoy your time with him.
Welcome Back--speedy recovery to you! Just pretend you're a movie star while wearing those sunglasses!
ReplyDeleteWow--from Kindergarten to Prom/Graduation. I just put my son on the afternoon bus about 45 minutes ago for afternoon K. Now I am so sad, because they all grow up so fast, don't they?

Oh Jane, I am so sorry to hear about your eye problem. You definitely need to take some time away from the computer. It is one of the worse eye strains.
