last weekend was a whirlwind of important events, my oldest--14, graduated the 8th grade, my youngest--5, graduated pre-school and my dear grandparents-in-law renewed their vows celebrating their 50th wedding anniversary at their home on the california coastline...
to watch ms. raine move closer to her freshman year was emotional to say the least... i remember being her age and the excitement of the first day of highschool; the boys; the mean girls; the pressures to look your best and impress all you can. you have a long and winding road ahead of you ... stay strong and true to yourself and those around you will follow.
when little miss crossed the stage of the church to accept her diploma, that sweet turn to face the cameras, chin pointed down and cheeks raised for her sweet smile... kindergarten is around the corner. going to school with big sis will be fun. live it up for all its worth...
and last but certainly not least, 50 years of wedded bliss, mr and mrs nana doe -- hats off to you both for all you have accomplished and the love you have grown. one can only hope to be as in love as the two of you half a century later... your strength and faith never falters, the school-kid crush glances and warm embraces... during the ceremony I found myself breathless and in awe...
