May is always a busy month for us. We have 4 birthdays in
the first 2 weeks, Mother’s Day, a wedding anniversary, and this year, a
graduation…my grandson, Kevin, graduated this year from Buena Park High School.
Like all grandparents, it seems like just yesterday when he was a youngster. It
is really eye-opening to me that the older I get, the faster time flies. I do
have a theory on that…that when we were young, we didn’t have so many life
experiences, so we looked forward to each new experience with such expectation
that the time seemed to pass so slowly. As we age, we have more and more life
experiences, so the expectations are less and the time seems to pass more
rapidly. At this rate, in the next couple of years, Christmas will come the day
after Valentine’s Day!
Here’s a photo of my special young man. I do insist on a
last day of school photo by the school “sign”. (That’s what we photographers do
to our kids, isn’t it!) I have slightly altered the photo using Artisan 5,
removing the date the sign was placed with the date of Kevin’s graduation.
