And here we are...at the end of another chapter!

 It is time to graduate!  The grandparents have arrived from Illinois and Florida! The grades are in...and the diploma will be legit!




Citizenship Award...which made us proud but also laugh...because...how?  He shared some of the daily shenanigans that went on in his classes.  The teachers were gracious.
Riding dirt bikes with his friends...is dirty business.
All practiced up and ready for the big night!

Fun with food






 

Mother's Day 2021

Guys made brunch after church!
Sweet treat from church.
My girls gave me beauty aids...and I think it is neat they remembered I had asked about what they were using and shared it with. me!

I am not a little kid mom anymore!  I am phasing out of the teenage mom now.  It is more heart-rending as I realize these three will soon be leaving our home on a more permanent basis sooner than later!
I love them!  I am proud of them!  It has been a lot of hard work, prayers, and tears...but they are moving on in their goals and dreams.
And this guy...he constantly loves us and proves it in so many different ways each day.  I asked him about salvaging my Gram's lamp...he looked at it and tested the switch and got the part.  It took time to test what was wrong and to stop and get the switch.  It took a few minutes to swap out the switch.  But it was more than all of that...he heard me and helped me keep something special in working order.  My days are filled with many special actions by the people I love...and this Mother's Day...I was more tuned in to noticing all the little things that were done.
