Unrelated News and An Update

Lots of things have been going on in life that have kept me pretty busy and away from the computer.
My oldest son turned 14 on Tuesday. He had football conditioning after school and then after that we had the parents' meeting for high school football. Talk about a reality check.
Then yesterday I watched him walk across the stage and graduate from middle school. Reality check again. This is getting too real.
I was trying to hold back tears, but failed miserably. I cried while tying his tie for him. I welled up in tears when they called his name and while choking back tears, I had to embarass him while yelling out, "Way to go Bubba!"
Did I forget to mention welling up in more tears when I realized that he will graduate high school when his baby brother will graduate Kindergarten? Yeah, that thought crossed my mind too.
Where oh where has the time gone? While these things have kept me tearful, it truly has been tears of joy.
