Graduation

In a few days 3 of my kids will graduate...Carley,Steven, and Chistopher. Where did the years go and what I wouldn't give to have just one of those days back for just a moment.I will write something to each of them in a Dr Seuss book The Places You Will Go and truly off they will go into the world.As a parent I probably complained about all I had to do raising 12 foster kids and our 3 but that time was truly the best of times and unfortunately we can't go back no matter how bad we may want to sometimes. It was a season of my life that I will always hold close.I will pray for them and give advice when asked but it is their life and they must make the choices which will define it.I use to say all the time "Life is about choices and those choices will define your life.They all are special and I am so glad they are a part of our family.We think we have all the time in the world.The truth is life is a series of fleeting moments that are ours to capture if only we will .Dr Seuss was right all along -oh the places places you will go!
