On Monday, May 23, we will have a reception/ceremony for him at the Hampton where Greg works. Then, on Sunday, May 29, at 10:00am, he will participate in the graduation ceremony with our state homeschool group. We decided to do the reception separately from this because the ceremony is on a Sunday morning (I HATE that!) and is at the resort where the convention is held (which requires attendees to drive to Orlando and pay $10 to park at the resort). We hated to put anyone to that much trouble and expense, so we did it this way. We'll see how it goes and make changes when Gerren graduates.
Please pray for me to not be a sobbing mess at either of these events!

I am going to have to view this at home...be mine is showing and I dont think that is what ylu mean. ::grin:: praying for your upcoming weeks of change.
That's so weird, DeEtta! No, that's not what I mean; it's a graduation theme. :)
I have always admired those stoic moms who don't shed a tear and claim to celebrate when a child leaves the nest. Well, maybe "admire" is not the correct word. What I mean is that I wish that when I was going through it, I was able to be like them in being able to turn off emotions. I was a sobbing, blubbering mess when Casee graduated (even for weeks before). Each time she leaves home to go back to school, it gets easier...but there is always something in me that longs to have all of my children slightly dependent on me and back under one roof. It's a secret wish and probably not a healthy one to see to fruition. But, hey...I AM a mom!
Glad to know I'm not alone, Michelle! :)
