A Graduate

He's done it!
 

Yesterday,
without pomp or ceremony,
the Man-Boy
fulfilled his High School requirements.
 
We chose to homeschool to the end
(with a public school Wood Shop class)
and now,
he moves on.
 
He has chosen to forgo
a ceremony
and party
but we are proud of him.
 
 
Not because he's done some great things
(which he has);
not because he's handsome, charming and funny
(which he is);
not because he's got his life all figured out
(because he hasn't);
not because of all he will accomplish
(which is much);
but simply because he
 IS.
 
He is an amazing child
of the great Creator
who breathed life into him
and declared that it is good
that he IS.
 
 
And that alone is reason enough
for us to be proud of him.
 
We love you son!
