We had Jack and Noah's preschool "graduation" this morning - oh my goodness was it cute!! We had regular chapel, then the little ceremony, so it was a lot of fun for all the families. But as I sat there, it really struck me how fast the next 12 years will go, and how I will never make it through their REAL graduation!!! I'll just be a puddle on the floor. I'm trusting that God will prepare me through the years and I'm sure I'll be much more ready to let go when the time comes - we're not supposed to be ready YET, right?!? So today I am SO rejoicing in the fact that my babies are still my "babies" and that their Daddy and I are still the most important people to them in the world. After gradution, I took them out for "coffee," thinking they would be really excited, but as it turns out they were rather glum - they said they think Kindergarten will be really hard and they're going to miss all their friends. They were all reflective about this year, so it was pretty cute.
This afternoon we head to a birthday party and tomorrow we head for Badlands - camping with my mom and dad and some wonderful friends of ours. We're hoping it will be a nice, relaxing weekend! And YEAHHH, I can eat again!! :) What fun is camping if all you can eat is yogurt, right?? So, I'm pretty happy - although in one week, I lost 8 pounds, so it didn't turn out to be a bad deal.
Hope everyone has a great long weekend!!!
Oh - the kids had t-ball pictures last night, so I posted a picture of them in their "uniforms."

You boys sure do look sharp in both the graduation caps and your baseball outfits! You are getting so big! Soon you will be graduating from high school (just kidding, mom and dad)! Have fun camping. Can't wait to see you in a week. Love, Grandpa Paul and Grandma Rayne
