one day and holding! Graduation is around the corner...

Amanda's graduation is tomorrow....WOW! Already? wasn't it just yesterday that she was heading off to preschool, 12 years of schooling and a soon to be diploma to account for all this learning.  As a mom that prides her self in teaching her children and would loved to have home schooled them, is very proud of the accompolishments of her children. Phil has just successfully finished his Jr. year of college and now Amanda is successfully finishing her highs school years!  What a time to be proud! 

Now the best is really yet to come, the best but a new road as well.  In the fall Bill and I will be empty nesters, well kinda, the nest isn't quite empty as we still have very needy pets, and then of course the kids are still in college and thus college bills and such still exist.  But I am very thankful for that!  I have loved being a stay at home mom, it has been my career...but I feel I am graduation as well!  I am moving on to different things, not just a stay at home mom anymore.  I have now the opportunity to do things I have thought of doing but have never really thought more than that! 

So tomorrow is graduation for Amanda and me....She will go on to NNU and study art, and I may get a job, or go to college or finish all those photo albums I thought I would have time to do while the kids were in school, but have put off for 12 years! Whew!

anyway, that is the scoop...now i need to do some cleaning.  We have family coming tonight and a party tomorrow.

Catch ya later!
