A Tribute to Char

I can't believe that Char is going to be graduating in four days!!!!!!!  What the what?!?!?! 

 It was just yesterday that I brought her home.  The girl was the Gerber baby and Michelin baby all rolled into one.  That girl had more rolls than the Pilsbury Doughboy!!!  LOL. 

 Then she started school.  Oh my what a roller coaster.  One thing I can say all of her teachers loved her!  What is there not to love?  Um, maybe not doing homework.  LOL

 What made her come out of her shell you might ask?  That would be chorus.  She learned that she loved to perform.  That was the beginning of the end. 

 Then we get into middle school and the discovery of clothes and fashion.  No mom could not pick out her clothes anymore without her there.  Lovely.  The only issue is that she had no clue what she wanted.  Those were fun years.

 Then high school.  A mere four years ago she walked into those doors nervous and excited all at the same time.  Oh this is when she figured out that boys were not icky anymore. 

 Sophomore year, the year of the boyfriends!  Enough said.

 Just had to comment on this picture.  Yes, Char those are called monkeys.

 Which brings us to this pretty girl.  Even though we had our ups and downs, I must say I am very proud of her.  She kept her word about alcohol and drugs, she helped out her friends when they needed her and stood up for herself. 

I also can't believe that Toria is going to be a Freshman next year!!!!!  Too much happening and it is going by too fast. 


Speaking of Toria.  We were so happy to finally be on our way in getting an evaluation until I opened the stoopid mail on Wednesday.  RGH sent me a letter stating that Toria needed to be tested at the school level first.  Um, and why did you not tell us this when I called last week?  So frantically I called the school.  Toria's guidance counselor is awesome.  Considering that there was literally only one day left of school, she is going to try to get her tested next week. 


Char went to take her placement test at MCC.  After that she went to register and was told that she has to take all her classes at the Damon City Campus.  UM WHAT!  Again, why were we not notified this in the seven letters you sent to her?  Suffice it to say she will be changing her major (which by Brockport standards is better).  ARGH!!!!! 


Jaimison is the only one that is not having issues (please God do not jinx me).  He is anxiously waiting for his surgery on July 11th. 


Happy Father's Day to all the awesome guys out there!!!!
