butterfly


well we made it through another phase my emma...
high school can be rough on some mama/daughter relationships,
but i think we did an excellent job!
there were only a few minor bumps in the road...
looking back though i think we can both say
that you have made a lot of really great choices.


you are an intelligent, creative and thorough student.
i love to see you enjoying what you do...
and we know it's not chemistry!
(that is just fine with me)
part of growing up
is finding what you are passionate about.
there's no denying what you excel at,
your amazing grades tell it all.
 a beautiful writer of essays and reports.
brilliant work! 


my butterfly girl,
you have truly grown to be a lovely young lady.
remember all the life lessons you have learned...
because it's almost
time to
fly.
i could not possibly love you more.

I didn't realize she was graduating high school this year. She is so darn cute. Has she chosen a university yet?

What a lovely post! You must be so proud of her and she looks beautiful in her grad pics. :)

How's your summer going? As you could see, we are bypassing Muskoka this summer. We considered it at first but wanted to add the cottage experience with a road trip and chance to see and try new things (that trip from Muskoka to Timmins to see family we've done a thousand times and believe me, there is nothing left to see!) Instead, we'll fly up to visit them and then back to Toronto to start our holiday. Can't wait to escape this place! xo
