We had such a beautiful night for Shelby's graduation...
A West Point admissions representative from our area came and gave the nicest speech about Shelby during the ceremony...
She pointed out how much she admired Shelby's choice in footwear for graduation. ;)
Shelby got a standing ovation from her class and the entire grandstands.
I was a blubbery mess. And Iz was worse.
Grandpa & Grandma Jacob came out from Iowa...as did her Uncle Nate & Aunt Carrie.
We got home from graduation and Belle disappeared for a little bit.
Finally she came around the corner with just this devastated look on her face, and she's crying. She looked at me and said, "What am I going to do without her?"
Oh, it was so hard to not give in and sob along with her. :( But I told her it was a happy night...the party was the next day...and Hawaii was the day after that.
We'll be sad next month.
Congratulations Miss Shelby....what ARE we going to do without you?????
