The last few weeks (after the prom night from hell and its aftermath) have definitely been out of the ordinary. Rather than gripe about all of it, I'll just note (okay, SHOUT with glee!!!) that yesterday afternoon my daughter Marie graduated from high school. Our local homeschool group help our first-ever graduation ceremony. The statewide homeschool organization holds a ceremony in Orlando but my daughter told me months ago that she didn't want to do that. When our local group sent an email asking who would be interested in a local graduation ceremony, of course we were thrilled! I had wondered how we would celebrate her "official" graduation if we didn't make the trip to Orlando. God presented this opportunity for us to be a part of yesterday's ceremony and I am so thankful for it.
Here's a picture of my daughter, my dh and myself,my mom, one of my sons, and my nephew after the service.
CONGRATULATIONS TO MARIE! And congrats to mum and dad, for raising up such a beautiful young lady - you must be so proud, Patrice! And how lovely that you could have a local ceremony!
