I did run out to get doughnuts before school (with apparently every other Mom in Louisville). And he was very appreciative and ran a doughnut up to his brother yelling, “it’s my graduation.” I was happy to see him a bit excited about the day.
We weren’t able to attend the ceremony, but I was happy to see them work to make it special for the kids and also making sure we could watch it virtually. I cried at least twice during the ceremony - just a lot of reflection on what these kids have been through and things they missed - outdoor ed, band trip to Elich’s and then end of the year celebration at Boondocks. But., as one of the speakers said, we learned to appreciate the small things - more time as a family, more skiing than we have ever done in a season, basement nerf battles, room for all of us to work and study and how resilient we all have been.
The eighth graders got out of school early and T-man walked to a friend’s house to hang out. They had lunch, played around, grabbed ice cream from the Sweet Cow Moo Mobile and then spent time in the basement here doing video games and nerf battles. It warmed my heart to have him out with his friends.
We celebrated tonight with sushi and enjoyed it on the back patio. Watch out Monarch High!
