Jess graduates!



I can't believe Jessica has graduated! It has been a very strange feeling to accept that my little baby girl is out of high school. She is so happy to be done. She has never liked school at all. When she started kindergarten, she would cry each day and say, "I just want to stay home with you". When I would look at her schoolwork, there were pictures of me she had drawn on the back of her papers, and it would say, "I love you Mommy" So she has just never been very happy about spending 7 hours a day away from home. She is a major homebody and just likes to be home with her family. In seventh grade, we even did half home school for her because she couldn't adjust to Middle school and was really upset every day.
She looked SO beautiful that night in her cap and gown.Both sets of grandparents came down and we all went out to dinner at P.F. Changs, Jessie's favorite.
A couple days after graduation, she and her group of 6 best friends all drove to California for a Senior Trip. She had a blast!
