Since this morning’s 8th Grade Farewell, I am now officially the mother of TWO high-schoolers! How the hell does this shit happen? SERIOUSLY? <\/p>\n

\"5-16-08_final<\/a> \"5-16-08_final<\/a> <\/p>\n

But I was up and showered and at the school at 8 freakin am this morning (SEE HOW MUCH I LOVE YOU, CHILD?) to watch my middle child, my oldest daughter, perform in her final band and choir performances of her Jr. High Career, and to watch her walk across the Transition Stage where the 8th grader becomes the Freshman. <\/p>\n

Awwww. (Note the change in ribbon color – from Kosack Purple and Gold to Kardnial Red and Black)<\/p>\n

And I’ve a lot of blurry photos to prove it! Mainly because I was too far from the stage – it’d be to easy to put the stage in the center of the gym, right? Right. Harumph.<\/p>\n

But, here you go! The Class of 2012! (…o.m.g!)<\/p>\n

\"8th<\/a> And the students firmly believe that Transition isn’t complete without the Hug from Summer. Mr. Summer is the favorite teacher – he’s repeatedly asked to give the speech at the farewells – and he ONLY gives hugs at the Farewell. Not ever through the year, only that last day. So, my girl (And most everyone else) got her hug, and feels that she’s now officially graduated.<\/p>\n

The difference between my son and daughter during this occasion? My son asked that I stay for the talent show and slide show, and thus I spent the majority of the day with him at the school. The Girl? Shoo’d me off as soon as the cake was eaten! “See ya later mom, ya don’t have to stay!” and off she ran with her gaggle of girlfriends! Harumph. Kids.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
