Getting ready to go to Stephanie's high school graduation ceremony is making me think of you. The fact that you graduated six months early two Decembers ago and never had a formal ceremony. It was such a difficult time back then and you simply wanted to be done with school. You finished up and graduated, diploma in hand -- but never had that formal public acknowledgment where we could as a family congratulate you.
I know you're happy with that choice of not having a party or going to graduation, but I've never said how very proud I am of you here, on my blog. In public. For finishing school on your own. For following through. For taking care of yourself and doing what you had to do. I have told you other ways how proud I am... just not here.
With all of the other graduations and achievements our family is experiencing this year that I've mentioned here, I wanted everyone else to know how very proud I am of all you have done and all you continue to do. You have a strength of character that is amazing to me. I admire you.
I love you Joel,
Mom
