Grad-bag

I wonder if anyone makes paper photos anymore, in this digital age of clicking and posting.  I have boxes of old photos that I went through yesterday with my parents who are here for the graduation.  We found pictures of my mom and  dad when they were young and beautiful.  Mom, took a picture of my dad when he looked like a version of young Charlie Sheen.  Hold it up to his face now with his long white pony tail, oh well, never mind!



I can't believe Jonathan and Sam are graduating.  I look at their little faces in the pictures and can remember those days like they are yesterday.    So sweet and adorable and funny as hell.  I had such a good time being their mom.  Of course I still am their mom, but no longer on an everyday basis.  Needless to say, I am so proud of them,  both graduating in a tough subject, physiology, Jonathan with honors and with applications in medical schools all over the country.  Sam discovering his entrepreneurship and leadership.  They have truly become wonderful men, gentle yet strong, smart, of course, but emotionally balanced and with the world of opportunities in front of them.  I always taught them they can be anything they put their minds to, as long as they are happy doing it.   I guess I wasn't always happy being a CPA so that was my main message to them, do what you can be happy doing.  I am still in search for my true passion.  With the boys growing up and finding their passion, I am finding myself on the same path.  I have an opportunity to interview with a large multi-national company.  I haven't had a corporate job, even a full time job for over 14 years!   I don't have the excuse anymore that I have to take care of my kids.   Why am I considering it?  They have offices in Paris :)
