Victoria-The Graduate |
This has been a very busy month of Open Houses. Many of my friends have children who graduated from high school. We always try to attend, because we want to celebrate this major accomplishment. Today we attended our last graduation open house of the season, but it was a special one. Our niece's daughter graduated from high school with honors. We definitely had to attend to be a part of this celebration.

We have enjoyed all of the Open Houses, but this one was so much fun because of all of the family members who were there, It was a great opportunity to catch up on everyone's lives, give and get hugs, and congratulate the new grad. There was great food, but my favorite thing was looking at the pictures of our great niece that chronicled her life since birth. She has always had a smile on her face. It was so much fun to see all of the years caught in pictures.

Family is a beautiful and interesting thing. Many of our family members aren't related by blood; however, they are very much our family. I don't always get to see them but they are very important to me. They have watched my children grow up and enjoy watching my grandchildren as they grow. They are always there if I need them. I also enjoy time with my nieces. They have become such wonderful young women. I am so proud of them, and this was an occasion to celebrate one of the most important accomplishments of a mother-seeing her child graduate. Proud parents, grandparents, aunts and uncles abounded! There was so much joy in their faces and in the hugs we all shared. I'm so lucky to be a part of their lives.
Have you found your joy today?
