    Default My son graduated from middle school tonight!

    Wow! My baby is now 14 and just graduated from middle school. Where does the time go? My sister gave him a card with a bunch of fun baby pictures of him in it, and I about cried! He is growing up so fast! All of a sudden his voice starting changing too, and I would find myself wondering who that man was in the house, and then realize it was my ds! LOL! Tonight I was taking a bunch of pictures of him and he was practically pushing me out the door because they were having a dance after the ceremony. I was embarassing him sticking around so long! LOL! Now he will be on to high school . . . Those little old ladies were so right when they said enjoy the time with your babies, because they grow up so fast!!!

    I've been so busy with year end activities at school and field trips with the kids, that I haven't been around much. I sure miss you all! Hope to be back more regularly real soon!

    It's just not fair is it? My son is 19 and I catch myself still thinking of him as he was when he was in K-garten. Congrats to your son for graduating to a man. Now get ready for the gilrs, none of them will be good enough for your baby boy.

    Congratulations to your son! I hear ya on how fast they grow up. My 13 year old DS's voice is also changing and he already has a little bit of peach fuzz on his upper lip. They don't stay little for long.
