The Graduate.

As promised ... pictures of the preschool graduation ... a full 13 years before he graduates from high school!
Mr. Joshua Howard had agreed to wear the cap and gown ... but was holding out on singing. Until he was ... ahem ... bribed with a large stack of quarters. (Truth be told ... I think he was just holding out until the price was right because now he is a SINGING fool! No worries ... I have learned my lesson for the next one!!)
And here he is ... just after surviving the singing and laughing that Pastor Bill mispronounced his last name. And I'm laughing that his life goal is to be a firefighter. Guessing it had a bit to do with the fact that a girl in his class ... who he has been known to call "My Addison" also wanted to be a firefighter? Just a theory.
J. How and Miss Allison and Miss Chrissy ...
My grandparents came ... celebrating their 65th wedding anniversary ... (And yes, it is nearly impossible to get a picture of my family without someone talking. Or giving instructions! It's just how we roll!)
Still in a bit of denial that I have a child going into kindergarten but so thankful for where he is going next year and praying that he blossoms and grows into exactly what God has designed!
