It's here!!!

Well, this is it!!! This is the week my eldest child graduates from high school! I can't believe it! WOW!!!! My baby, my first introduction into this crazy, wonderful life of being a mom is so close to leaving the nest. Oh! How I can't believe its true. But this is not the only excitement fro the month of May because my oldest daughter is also graduating but actually in June, June 5th that is. Tom and Tiffany are 11 months apart in age. They are called Irish Twins, born within a 12 month period. In fact if Tiffany may her debut 6 hours earlier she would have been born in the same year as Tom. They have been together through thick and thin. They are very close and love each other deeply. I love to see their relationship in action. they take care of each other but as siblings do they argue compassionately as well! they both have chosen the field of law which mom finds interesting. Where did that interest come from? As Saturday approaches I am so excited to go see Tom walk across the stage and receive his diploma. I am so proud of him. Tom had the opportunity, the blessing to play basketball for Oak Hill Academy in Virginia. He has worked hard all year and has had excellent grades. After graduation he leaving for the Army in July. Whew! I need to remember to pack tissues!!!
