The BG Junior/Senior Prom 💚💛 has come and gone. My oldest attended his Junior Prom. I thank God everyday, for allowing me to be your Mom.
17 years old, Junior Year almost has commenced. My heart runneth over with so much pride, joy and happiness for the man you have become.
Watching so many of the Seniors attend Prom on Friday, and today go to their last day of High School is making me so emotional, and they’re not even my kiddos. Theo has met so many amazing friends at BG, and to watch them head into graduation is making me feel so many feels! 🥰 Hugs to all my friends who will be watching them walk the walk soon, and hugs to all the seniors that mean the world to us as well! “Behind you, all your memories. Before you, all your dreams. Around you, all who love you. Within you, all you need.”
Sharing some candids I took on Friday before the BG Prom. Not as many as I would normally take, as I promised my son, to stay in my lane and I would stand down a little with the photographs! 😝 (which I did!)
Just my thoughts as a Momma of five and my oldest who is heading into his Senior Year. Make it the best one yet! 💙
“. . . One day, I am helping your brush your teeth & tucking you into bed. Holding my hand, wherever we went. Watching endless, Curious George shows, Cars & Toy Story movies over, and over, and over again with you & your brother. Always keeping you safe in my arms, with my love and prayers.
I need a minute…💙
- Son, you looked up at me, and gave me that smile, I told you I loved you, and YOU lit up HIS world.
. . Then watching you play endless sports through the years, attending school, as you got older. Watching you always give your best. Watching you fail and pick yourself back up. Watching others fail you, and in those others failures, teaching you life’s hard lessons at such a young age. Which only made you stronger. Teaching you how to drive, both physically and your mental driven abilities and become the man you are today. Always pushing yourself to the next level. You have such a confidence about you. You are strong, capable, and dependable. You are the real deal my son.
Now, as I wait for you to come home from work, school, football, and this past weekend with prom not necessarily in my arms anymore but safe under my roof. These days passing by too quickly.
I need a minute 💙
- Son, now you look down at me, and give me that smile and HE now lights up MY whole world.
Follow those stars my son. Follow the signs. Follow your dreams. Follow your soul and your gut in everything you do! I can not wait to walk by your side throughout your upcoming senior year, and cherish every single moment with you.
Live like you will never grow old, laugh & love everyday, always stand up for what is right, even though it’s not the most popular thing to do! Walk away from any and all drama that surrounds you no matter how hard it may be, because your heart & mind will always be better for it, trust me! Always make the time for the people and things you hold dear to your heart. Play as hard as you work. Always take time to reflect, give yourself a break from life and value your time. Always remember God is with you, and so are we.
Keep us close, always my son. 💙 We love you now and forever, till the end of time.
M&D 😘
