I am in New Mexico visiting for an event that I cannot currently divulge...but, what I can say is that an Auntie treat was to attend nephew Quintin's sixth grade graduation:
Quentin, in the blue shirt received several acknowledgements.
He receives congratulations...
One award was to acknowledge his uniqueness and perseverance--he is a role model and this button has the Presidential Seal....
A Proud Young Man....
A proud mom takes a special moment....
Then, they had cake!
And then, they didn't....
Many happy parents celebrating what I know, some of you may think is a little lame event. I had initially thought that...My mind was changed as the methaphor of learning to ride a bike was discussed in terms of their transition (the training wheels have come off and there are bumps but also exhilaration). Then, there was a really nice video with pictures and music...it was totally sweet. And, most importantly, Quintin was so proud.
I have to say, I too am proud. Well done young man!
