mother's day was the morning AFTER prom...and by 3:30 AM my oldest was sound asleep....SAFE & ALIVE....in her bed! i love the way they plan prom now at our school....put 'em on the fancy bus to chicago, keep 'em on the boat in the harbor for dinner & dancing, bus 'em back and lock 'em in for after-prom. deliver them safely back to the school...which just happens to be right across the street from OUR neighborhood. WHEW! graduation is THIS sunday and i know she is experiencing all those weirdly opposing emotions...of being excited to be "DONE" - but sorta sad in an almost child-like way. i am so personally THRILLED to know she is staying here at home to work part-time and go to the community college. i think she will make a wonderful elementary teacher and she is wise to get her education in a cost-effective way. she is so much fun - so delightful - so JOY-full! - we are blessed by her presence. she has really and truly gone from a wonderfully sweet child to a precious "friend!" i love my adult daughter....
