Trek across Germany and beyond


Congratualtions Class of 2006!

It is always fun to go but it is certainly good to be be home again. We are back from our trip to Grafenwoer to see Mike graduate from High School. A momentous leap for our firstborn. He will be heading off to Osh Kosh for college in a few weeks and it was so hard to say goodbye. No more fun summers spent exploring and taking family vacations, no more ingenious surprise dinners from our budding chef, long talks about the great big dreams he has, playing every kind of sport...Mike is such a versatile and talented kid (er young man) he has grown up way too fast. The years flew by way too quickly. It seems like he was a tiny slip of a boy with a high pitched squeaky voice just a moment ago...now he is a very handsome man with a deep sultry voice on his way to making the world a much better place with all he has to contribute.

I don't need to wish him luck because I know he will be great at whatever he puts his mind to doing. I don't have to pray that his life be without trial because I know that he will meet each challenge and build upon it. I don't have to wish him love because his heart is big and strong; it can weather the heartaches and bring joy to the mournful and someday it will burst with the joy of a lifetime fullfilled with good moments, with sad moments, and every moment unique. I wish him a lifetime of moments that will be cherished forever. May God Bless You Always Mike!
