Junior Senior Banquet 2015

"The pleasure of watching our children grow up is mixed with a bitter cup of knowing our watercolor ponies will one day ride away."

If you happen to be a Wayne Watson fan, you may recognize the above line from the lyrics of his 80's hit.

For some reason, my husband has had this song running through his head all day. I can't listen to it. It makes me too sad to stop and think about my current reality.... my children are growing up.

One of my watercolor ponies has already galloped off to college.

Another is about to break free of the family corral.

My heart,  proud of the young men they have become, but also so heavy as they embark on adulthood.

Never has this pleasurable bitter cup more evident than now.....
