You'd think my mama heart would blow to pieces…..everything happening at once.
This tall taste of lovely walked across that stage like she belonged on one.
My heart just swelled with pride. She's waited a long time for this moment.
The funny part about graduations…is that they are merely a blip on the screen of life. Some people revel in their high school days forever. That's why they're called the "glory days". But for Gates, I don't think that's how she feels. Finishing her senior year out at Christmas was the right thing to do.
The day couldn't have been more perfect. I'm so proud of her and I know….this is where REAL life begins. Good luck on your journey Gates!
If watching your baby graduate wasn't enough — how about celebrating your oldest turning 2 3 on the same day? Oh yea!
It's been a doozy!
I couldn't have asked for a sweeter son. God was very specific in giving me one that would touch my heart in a very special way.
He rolled up his jeans to show off his new shoes from his sister.
23 years ago he was an 8lb. 7oz. 20 1/2 in. long ball of raspy voiced cries. He spent 5 days in NICU in Lakeland, Florida after breathing in meconium. God had plans for this boy and as I stand beside him now…..I see it wasn't to stunt his growth.
He's tall & handsome … just like his daddy!
See, these are the ones that make my world go round! My family is the best gift God has ever given me. I thank Him for choosing me. Everyday.
Now we all move on to a new chapter.
Congratulations Gates!
Happy Birthday Gavin!
