They are copies (transferred to fabric) of several awards that she has received and poems she has written, in her own hand writing. It is absolutely gorgeous. She also made her a matching pillow sham. My dad took her shopping today and bought her laptop for college. Then his wife took her shopping again and they picked up a neoprene case for the laptop, a lap desk, a one cup coffee pot, lots of flavors of coffees and some pepperspray (lol).

Tomorrow I have to cook all the pasta, hit up Gordon's Food Service for potato salad, tossed salad, green beans and table covers and hit up Party City for decorations and balloons. I also have to do laundry so I can pack for my business trip at some point. Tonight, I need to iron my two dresses (one for graduation, one for the party) and hypo's graduation gown and pay bills. And here I am, on greekchat...lol.

Congrats to S and the Class of 2012!

Awww shucks, thanks *hugs* but you already ARE an awesome mom, sis.

I will not deny, hypo and I are having our moments with each other lately. Our emotions are really in overdrive and we've been rather snarky and short with each other. We are careful to apologize after we know we've been out of line though and it will be ok. This really is an emotional struggle at times because I want to see her pursue all of her dreams and continue to grow but at the same time, it is hard to have to let her go. I am far from a helicopter parent and have always encouraged independence, but the thought of not seeing her for months on end is tough! She did make sure she got a laptop with a webcam so we can Skype though

Party tomorrow.. I need some sleep!
