No it isn't possible that the 2014-2015 school year is over. Today is not only mothers day but also Senior recognition Sunday at our church which means Baccalaureate is tonight which means the end of the year and graduation is Friday. I can't believe the year is ending. I also missed a post about our final concert. I know my few readers are completely heartbroken and I apologize. It was a great night of music. I missed the first year band because of work. The kids did a great job and I am proud of them. When I look over at administration and they are "dancing" in their seats it was a great concert.
I must admit I am not ready for this week. This group of seniors I have watched since they were in about 8th grade and some, well two, I have known since they were tiny babies. I must admit I am not a mom but seeing those two young men and watching them for the last 18 years it goes by way to fast.
I will try to update on Friday during graduation but I don't think I will do a great job through the tears. This group will definitely be hard to say goodbye to. I have watched them grow into ornery freshman who thought they were smarter and more talented then anyone else in the band room to very humble and mature young men and women. OK there are still a couple who might think they are better but I don't think I would want them to be any different.
I am partly glad we don't go to Baccalaureate because I highly doubt I could make it through both graduation and baccalaureate without a total break down.
I know these kids aren't mine but for a short time they become my kids and I pray fervently for each of them. There are times that I don't feel worthy to be apart of their lives but God placed me there for a reason and if that is to be an intercessor for them, I will do that.
Like I said, I will try to update on Friday but I don't promise it will be there or if it will be any good.
