School's out forever! Ok well not quite, both of you have many more days of your school career ahead of you, however Brooklyn graduated from nursery school this week and is now ready for JK.
I have a lovely photo of Brooklyn receiving her diploma but sadly it is on my phone and I am not savvy enough to know how to upload here yet.
Anyhow...school's out for SuMmEr!!!

My promise to my children ~ I am your parent, I will stalk you, flip out on you, lecture you, drive you insane, be your worst nightmare & hunt you down like a bloodhound when needed because I LOVE YOU! When you understand that, I will know you are a responsible adult. You will NEVER find someone who loves, swears, cares and worries about you more than I do!
On growing up!!
I Remember when boys had cooties...when friends were new, dreams were un-shattered and worries few...when recess was too short and life was too long...decisions came easily without need to belong...when storks delivered babies and passions weren't so strong...friendships were un-broken...right was right, and wrong was wrong...when bad things didn't happen...when only skinned knees brought tears and the night light in it's socket quieted all our fears...when farewell meant just for summer and real friends didn't part...the fun went on forever and never left a broken heart.
For so many years I thought I was immune to aging and growing up. Responsibility didn't involve nearly the same stuff it involves now. I remember when I only had myself to deal with and how much work that was on a good day. I see lines on my forehead that where never there in my 20's I see laugh lines and crows feet that have creeped up and I have plucked a gray hair or 2. As much as I wish I could deny the inevitable I am growing up and getting older. Life is happening all the while I was busy making plans. You only realize how fast life goes by when you have a life to look back on.
As we grow up, we learn that we may fall but we can always get back up. Hearts will be broken but it will always love again. So many people will come and go but the true friends will be there forever. You'll cry because time is passing too fast, and you lose someone you love. It will hurt like hell but you will never regret knowing them because the memories make up for the pain. Take too many pictures so you can reminise, laugh too much, and love like you've never been hurt because every sixty seconds you spend upset is a minute of happiness you'll never get back.
