FRIENDS

I really have been so busy lately with

After- Prom planning & fundraising,

senior pictures, scholarships, applications,

campus visitation days, sports games, practices,

dress shopping and on and on.......

What is it all for?- all the time, all the work,

all the stress, all the money and on and on........

When Lizzie told me that her and her friends wanted to

take a senior group picture, I thought, "another thing"!

I didn't know when we would be able to do it

with every one's busy schedule, but we pulled it off

and got everyone together.

As I was editing the pictures at home- it HIT me-

yeah- you know what-

it HIT me!!!!

Tears and all!!!!!

They looked so old! These girls are my "adoptive children"!

I have been so used to a house full of kids in our t.v. room.

I have been so used to hauling them around all over the place.

I have been used to dressing them up in funny clothes.

I have been used to make them snacks and their favorite lemonade.

I have been used to them getting in their little drama moods

and forcing them to talk it out.

I have been so used to being so close to each one of them!

What am I going to do without all of that?

What am I going to do without all the work, stress and time that

I have put into these kiddos?

Poor, poor Jackson. He's not going to know what to do

with all of the time we are going to have together!

I am really going to miss them!

I thank God that He let me be apart of

each one of their lives.

I am so very proud of all of them!
