Yesterday I stood for two hours straight, just to get photos. My son Ben was graduating from college. His department was the last to be called. Ben graduated with a degree in Visual & Graphic Arts.

Happy Mother's Day.
Congrats to him.
Fine looking kids and grandbabies, Nanina. Graduation ceremonies suck but we attend because we've spent so much money to get us to that day, Sounds like he chose a great major....hopefully, in this economy, he can get a job pronto.
My English major grad is working in a coffee house serving poetry and songs.
Your children are handsome and lovely. The grandchildren are adorable. I know you are proud of them and you have good reason to be proud. I love the chin whiskers that the two are sporting. One of my sons (I have 3) went through the chin whisker stage during the college years too. I think he thought it made me look older, LOL, or maybe it was just because he could. Your family is beautiful. Thank you for sharing your pride with us. I'm proud of him right along with you. Finishing college today is no easy thing to do. It's very very expensive. A big Woo Hoo to him.
