It was graduation day today for Sammie. I can't believe she is that old. She is beautiful inside and out and I feel so grateful that she is mine. She came home a few nights ago after her last dance performance and let Colby and I know that she was home and said goodnight but she only took a few steps down the hall and turned around and came back and said "thanks for supporting me the last 3 years" WOW!!!!! IT WAS PAYDAY!!!. She is going to the all night graduation party tonight and Colby and I are going to work the 2:00 a.m. to 4:00 a.m. shift. I figure, why not, I can't sleep anyway. Insomnia seems to be my new companion. My body has learned to function on about 3-4 hours of sleep a night and I am having a hard time even getting that tonight. Kaysha has begun her summer partying by going out last night to a movie and tonight with another friend roller skating and enjoying all of the things at classic skating. Both girls have trips planned next week so it is going to be very quiet here. Hopefully cheap too.
I am going to start work next Monday. I will go back 3-4 hrs for 3 days a week and ease into the schedule for two weeks before I resume my normal schedule. It feels like I have had a lot of healing in the last two days. Water therapy last Thursday felt so good. I am thinking it is helping and that makes me so happy. I did go to the graduation in the wheelchair. I debated whether or not to do that but when I saw all of the people being so uncomfortable on the bleachers, I was so grateful I had a nice comfortable seat. We went to Leatherby's after the graduation and had our traditional ice cream feast. It seems strange to think that my oldest grandson graduated from 6th grade today as well. I can't be that old.

I can't believe how fast the time has gone also. It seems as though you just had those last two little babies. I am so amazed at the progress you have made, but shouldn't be surprised. You have always had such an incredible gift to get the most out of everyday. I told you to come here for the water aerobics . . . it would have been fun (except for the commute!) and wonderful on the body. Hope to see you again soon. Vickie
