Graduation!

First off, I'm writing this post because it still doesn't feel real! I can't believe it!!!! This will hopefully seal it for me... :)

Graduation was amazing. God put people in my life that day that helped me realize that my graduation wasn't all about me. It was about so many people's lives that poured themselves into me to make me who i am and inspire me to do better. Even that day, God put people in my path that just made my day. While waiting for my commencement to begin, i spoke with one of the moms who home schools her children in our co-op. She asked me, from my perspective as a graduate, how hard or how easy home schooling was and how much i liked home schooling. I went through and told her my struggles. it was very interesting to hear myself summarizing my own school experience! God totally gave me a new perspective on how it was!

I was pretty nervous about my speech right before i walked up to the front... but God surprised me by giving me a new friend--a little girl named Hannah. She kept my mind off my speech until i was sent up the aisle.

It still doesn't feel real now...much later!! But I am SO thankful for God's direction these past years.... and am so excited to see what He does in the future....

Thanks to all of you for helping make me who i am.


I'M A GRADUATE!
