This Family has been by our side since our girls were 6 years old. We have been through many ups and downs together. I have seen Penny pregnant with her 2 youngest children. We have cheered each other on through soccer games and the teen years. Penny and Brian’s oldest Son accidentally removed 8 of Truman’s baby teeth…and not at the same time! We have spent lazy beach days counting heads in the water and we have applied discipline and parenting to each others’ children when it was needed. And next week we will sit in a crowded room and watch our two eldest daughter’s graduate from high school. And we will burst with pride that they worked hard and made it! We will do our best to hold back tears…but honestly Aislinn just walked into my house the other day and I nearly bawled at the sight of her. Next year, she will take her love of soccer with her to college, where she will be playing at Lynchburg. We will definitely need a schedule so we can come and watch you play! You have always been an amazing young Woman and a hard worker. I cannot wait to see what the next phase of life brings for you. Always trust in yourself, Aislinn, and know that no matter what, I am here for you…any time…day or night…you just have to call if you need me!
So when you see me at graduation next week, wearing my shades inside, sneak me a quick hug! I will need one! XOXO!
