Graduation Day

It's that time of year again... but this year is extra special, because my little brother Joseph is graduating from high school this year!

I can't really believe that it's actually happening-- since he's so much younger than I am, I still think of him as 8 years old.

But yesterday he donned a cap and gown and received his diploma from Homer Senior High School....... and now he's officially an alumni.

I couldn't be more proud, or more sad that I couldn't be there. But there's a surprise in the works..... shhh.....

Happy graduation, Joseph! Now you're a real (gulp) adult!
