This is our baby's junior year. She didnt want us at the home to take pictures, "Its dumb mom, there will be lots of moms and cameras just get some from them."
After she left my Einstein and I jumped in the car and drove into the culdesac about 20 seconds after her. She was so surprised when one of her friends said, Hey your parents are here.
It is always so exciting to be around these kids and their enthusiasm about mostly being together. I think she was glad we were there also.
Just before we left the parent hosting the picture taking event said, "wow you all are just about done!" Well I know that she is just clueless because you are never DONE as a parent. The idea of not being exposed to the high school energy sorta made me melancholy. It also made me too aware not to take a minute of it for granted and to absorb the energy of the present!
Wow. I want to live where you live.
ReplyDeleteSo pretty and you must be so proud.
ReplyDeleteWait until they leave home...boy, that is an adjustment..
ReplyDeleteGreat pictures. It's hard to even imagine that stage with my little monkey's being as young as they are.
ReplyDeleteTime will move swiftly on and you will be taking grand child pictures.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful young people. Time goes by so fast and you are right: your work is never done as a parent.

My neighbors have big picture taking sessions in their yards before the big dances too. When I first saw it, I watched from my window, all the kids dressed in their prom or homecoming attire. I didn't experience that growing up. They were/are adorable, just as the pictures you've posted.
ReplyDeleteGlad you went. Guess I'll cross that bridge next year. :)
