PROM 2009

It still rattles my mind to know that I have a child who is a senior, who just turned 18, who has just attended his Senior Prom! It makes me proud and sad at the same time. I hope I have done enough. I hope I have done my part to protect his wings for the day that he leaves home. I hope that he will be able to fly and soar well away from our nest.
I present to you my first bird who's going to fly away from the cuku nest.

He is so handsome...I know I commented on these pics on facebook...but I just had to tell you how gorgeous they are again. I understand worrying if you have done enough...sometimes I look at Manga Dork and see her growing so fast and I wonder about the things I need to teach her.

Warrior looks great in the white & peach tux! I don't think a lot of guys can pull that off, but then again when your handsome, you can wear a trashbag and still look good! Him and his date look FABULOOOOUUUUS!!

Of course he's handsome to look at! but I see the hrs. and prayers and talks behind that gorgeous face of a mother who was there and taught him.

Yes!!!! you did enough
