In about an hour or so, we’re off to David’s high school graduation.  He’s our last guy to graduate, and it’s been a little while coming.  But no matter…we’re planning to celebrate in style.  It’s been a crazy couple of days, getting everything ready…but it’s worth it.  Yesterday after picking up his cap and gown for the ceremony, David was wearing his cap as we drove around in my truck, and he turned to me and said, “One dream is about to become a reality!”  =)

It’s kind of exciting for me too…I get to be his “father” and walk him up to the front to receive his diploma.  That’s a pretty cool honor.  Of course he told me Thursday night.  Then Friday afternoon I suddenly realized that I probably needed some dress-up clothes.  So yesterday Isabel and I scrambled to find me a suit (most stores are only open until noon on Saturday) and then today I was running around the market trying to find a shirt, tie, shoes, socks and a belt.  It’s not like at home…all the stores are kind of mixed together, so you just have to keep looking until you find the right stores.  I managed it, but it wasn’t my happiest moment…

Anyhow, I’ll post pictures from the grad and supper this week sometime.  I just wanted to ask you to pray for us tonight.  That Ken doesn’t fall flat on his face, and that David has a good time.  He doesn’t have much in the way of family, so I’ve been inviting everyone who even sort of knows him.  It’ll be fine, but I don’t want him to feel bad or anything…

So anyhow…my first boy’s graduating tonight…  I feel so proud.  =)
