It's almost at the end ~~~

Time is winding down, and soon Nicole will be Graduating from High School. Right now, it's finishing up with the "last of this", and the "last time we'll be doing that" with Nicole and her activities.  

Last night was the Band Banquet.  It's the "Last" Band Banquet we will be attending..... Very bittersweet to say the least.   As they gave out the awards, I could just imagine how each of the other parents were feeling at that moment.  And when they called Nicole's name to receive one of the Outstanding Senior awards, my heart melted a little bit more.  Out of 25 Seniors, only 4  were given of this award. 


Of course we are very Proud of her ~~

Next up is the "Last" Band concert, the "Last" Parade she will be marching in, and then her "Last day of High School.  I can only imagine where life is going to lead her..  Where ever it is, she will do just fine.  So proud of both of our children. 

I hope the sun is shining where you are today ~~
