Today, Oldest Daughter graduated from Kindergarten. Now, before I became a parent, I had heard of other people going to a Kindergarten graduation and thought it was ridiculous that a six-year-old would be graduating from anything.  But now that I am the parent of a six-year-old, I get it.     This graduation isn't for me, the mother, or for Handy Hubby, the father.  It's not even for the teacher, as she sends her pupils off to summer vacation on a happy note.         No, it's for Oldest Daughter.  And all of her classmates.  They are leaving their first tastes of learning and are about to enter a legitimate school grade.  They are being told that they are no longer the youngest at the school, but are about to become true contributing members.  They are no longer the babies on campus, but are now big kids.  I don't envy these six-year-olds the many years of schooling they h...

  As I Look Back... As I look back on my life I find myself wondering... Did I remember to thank you for all that you have done for me? For all of the times you were by my side to help me celebrate my successes and accept my defeats? Or for teaching me the value of hard work, good judgement, courage, and honesty? I wonder if I've ever thanked you for the simple things... The laughter, smiles, and quiet times we've shared? If I have forgotten to express my gratitude For any of these things, I am thanking you now... and I am hoping that you've known all along, how very much you are loved and appreciated.
