Graduation 2012

When school began it felt like it would be forever before we finished.  Honestly, it seems like a blink to me. Our lessons are almost complete and plans for next year are in the works.  

Last Friday we had our annual evaluations, which officially brought our 4th child to the end of his homeschool journey.  What a journey it has been. He was faithful and finished his course. 

While I am overjoyed at his success, it is a bittersweet moment for us. It reminds me how fleeting our lives are, and especially the brevity of the time we have with our children. Almost overnight they transform from babies, to toddlers, to teens, and suddenly, childhood days are done, wings are flight-worthy, and they soar off embarking on a new life's journey.  





In less than two days our son will be leaving his childhood behind and enter adulthood. 
 We love him so dearly. He is such a blessing to us. 

Son, you will be missed more than we can say.  I love you, Son.
