There is a good reason they call these ceremonies "commencement exercises." Graduation is not the end; it's the beginning. ~Orrin Hatch
It takes courage to grow up and become who you really are. ~e.e. cummings
Okay, it's two quotes, but seriously, what can I say to these two who have graduated high school and are ready to take on the world? One thing would be to remind them that this is just the beginning - that they have their whole lives ahead of them. The other would be to encourage them to follow their bliss - to not get bogged down by expectations and materialistic aspirations - to find what truly makes them happy. I wish someone had given me that advice when I graduated.

I love the way this page tells the story. It progresses beautifully.
This is a great page,Cheri....love the grid feel....and the colours. The 2 quotes are spot on as well.
That is so true - Beautiful photos and LO. A special day :0)
Another of life's milestones past. Now you get to be an observer as the girls all choose the kind of live's they want. You hope you've instilled the lessons you wanted them to learn, and you hope they will follow a path that won't lead to heartbreak, but in the end, they will make their own decisions. And you will always be there to catch them if they fall. I am also an observer, and can't wait to see where life leads them all.
It looks like a beautiful day for two beautiful girls. And what great advice!
What a lovely layout and congrats to those two beautiful young ladies!
Beautiful colors, and the photographs are fantastic. I find this very bittersweet, though, as I know it's in my not too distant future!
