It's official...

Tyler is no longer a high school student. We didn't make it to graduation because of the uncertainty of the weather, but we did go out to dinner with everyone Saturday night. Tyler won an award, I think it was the Alpha Award (not positive). He had the third highest SAT score in the district. He'll be starting USC-Aiken in the fall. I know I'm proud.

Now, you have to remember we don't see John's family often. Lawson is getting so big and nothing but muscle! He'll be starting 4th grade next year. And Morgan (she hit the "Maleah grew up" stage this year), will soon be twelve and a cheerleader next year. Where does time go? I won't get started on that one. Scott, I didn't get to talk to, but looking at him across the room you can tell he is changing too, taller and more confident it seemed to me.

It seems that journeys constantly stop and start in life. You stop one journey only to begin another. Sometimes the journey is just what you expected, but most of the time it seems life goes down a winding path so you just don't know what is around the bend until you get there. Then the journey is nothing like you expected because you never thought of it. But that is how life is...unpredictable and exhilarating if you let it.

I hope everyone's journey is lived to its fullest (and safest).
