He's A Graduate!




















We are so very happy for and proud of our son Rhett! Last weekend, he graduated with honors from Pennsylvania Leadership Charter School! He worked very hard during his high school years, both with his schooling and with Steve at the dealership learning the family business. We were so very thankful that our online school held a virtual graduation ceremony that we all enjoyed together. We took the traditional pictures and then celebrated with Rhett's choice, subs and wings with Peyton's homemade strawberry pie for dessert. 

The day was happy, sweet, and cozy. I will admit I shed more than a few tears as I realized that the sweet little boy I carried into three-year-old preschool is now a grown man, ready to begin a brand new chapter in his life. But as my mom reminded me more than once, that is his job. Our children are born to live, learn, and grow. And I am honored to have had the pleasure of being beside Rhett every step of the way. 

Have a lovely Wednesday, my friends.
Thanks for visiting.
