And this
And this
Then I walked in the house and saw this laying on the fireplace
And this...which sent tears to my eyes.
I finally saw this on my couch. It's one of my daughter's best friends, Virginia, apparently exhausted from all the senior activities that have taken place over the last week. I'm not sure any of those activities have had anything to do with studying anything.
The food is ready to bbq. The cake is ordered. The decorations bought. The guests invited. I shall be up early getting the last minute details taken care of.
And I shall be wearing waterproof mascara.
And carrying tissue.
From the moment I wake up tomorrow.

ReplyDeleteA very emotional day for all of you. Have a good friend help with the food so you can enjoy the fleeting moments with the graduate. Mine lasted at her own party for about an hour.
ReplyDeleteOK. I am an idiot and am banning myself from Hawaii. I just reread the "Hawii there!" writing. Much smarter person than me. Hang in there, Cheri!
