Tallin is a high school graduate with a diploma to prove that he did it! Yeah Tallin!!! The ceremony was outside, on the football field. It had been hot all day. The kids had played outside in the water and we were worried it might be too bright and hot. But nope... the clouds came in and the wind started blowing. And it blew. And blew... and kept blowing for the entire ceremony. Hats were blowing off. The usual graduation beach balls that are normally thrown around during the ceremony just got blown onto the track, but it kept kids busy chasing them. It was just fun... they won't forget their graduation because the wind blew!!! :) Tomorrow there will be pictures of our recent graduate. Tonight Tallin is at the senior party they put on to keep them off the streets and sober! :) Not that I was worried about Tallin, but it's their last time as a class, with lots of prizes and fun and he has the camera which is why I don't have pictures of him tonight! He looked so handsome, and so happy. When his name was called there was a spring to his step like a man who knows he worked hard and earned that reward! It was tough, but he pulled it together and he made it and we are so proud of him!
Congratulations Tallin... you are amazing and we are so happy for you!!!!
A wise man once said, "In all living, have much fun and laughter. Life is to be enjoyed, not just endured." We have weathered storms that tried to break us, but through it all, we have always tried to find the joy in our journey. Watching our family grow has given us more joy than we ever thought possible. There is joy in the journey, even in the middle of the storms!
I never knew how much love a heart could hold, until they called me mom
