As most of you know , and some may not, I have a son who is graduating High School this weekend.   It is hard to believe that my baby, my last child is actually getting ready to leave his “elementary” school years behind!!   I also have 2 granddaughters that live with me, ages 10 and 11 so while my “baby” is graduating High School, I still currently have 2 young ones in the home in their early years of “elementary” school.

I find myself reflecting on the day he started his 1st real job, the day he got his drivers license, bought his own car (with money HE saved up and purchased on his own)   There are just so many things that as a mom, you sit and reflect back on during these last couple weeks before they graduate.    read more
