Have you noticed that nowadays, kids “graduate” pretty much every year? By the time high school (and hopefully college!) rolls around, I’ll have a lot of practice attending graduations. There were the preschool, kindergarten, and grade school ceremonies. Junior High is coming too soon.
Sometimes it seems a little funny that our kids have so many graduations. But I’ve come to realize they are as much about my kids’ accomplishments, as they are markers along our life’s journey together.
So with that in mind, and summer around the corner, I want to encourage you to cherish these little moments. Embrace them while they last. And whatever you do, don’t forget your camera!
As I used to tell my classmates after my own childhood graduations, “Have a great summer!”
