Graduation Season in Real Life

Here it is, June 17th, and I can finally breath.  My oldest graduated Friday and the weeks leading up to the grand celebration overwhelmed me.  But it was all worth it.  He graduated with honors, plans on going to OSU and wants to study engineering.  We are so proud of him.  But the whole ordeal made me think of all you other parents out there, going through the graduation and transition to adult process.  Breath, is my first suggestion.  You have raised these children for 18 years, taught them right from wrong, and molded them to be fine adults for all that time.  They will do fine.  Step back and let them become the beautiful adult you have worked so hard to raise.  Hug them, love them, but let them go.  They will come back and return that love, (if for no other reason that they need real food 😍), and you will be so proud!

Congratulations to all of 2019's graduates!
