So here's the question: Do you have any relatives graduating this month? Whether a loved one is graduating from kindergarten or college, I think graduations are to be celebrated!
My sweet niece Sarah will be graduating from high school tonight. She attends a private, all-girl Catholic school and tickets are limited so we won't be going to the graduation (we completely understand the whole ticket thing!) Sarah will be heading to college in Prescott, AZ this fall.
(It's funny, we only have 2 nieces, Sarah and her sister Allison. Sarah and I share a birthday and then Allie's birthday is the day after my husband's.)

Good Morning Miz Linda,
Nope, no graduates here but my family is very very small *smiles* My son has completed his first year of college though *smiles* Hope you have a wonderfully blessed weekend!
This very day I am headed to a double graduation party. My cousin has 2 girls; 1 is graduating HS and 1 is graduating college. The HS grad is also my goddaughter.
So excited for them!
Hi Linda,
No graduations this year. My sons high school graduation was in 2007, my niece in 2008, my other niece will be in 2010, my nephew in 2011 along with my son's graduation from college, and my other nephew in 2012. So 2009 is the only year of no graduations!Have a great weekend. Hugs, Loretta
Good morning Linda, Yes we actually have a niece and a nephew both graduating from high school this month. One is from my side of the family and one is from my husbands. Of course both parties are on June 20, so we will be hopping from part of the city to the other, lol. We have 16 nieces and nephews, so there will be several more of these graduations in the future! Thanks for asking, Sue
Good morning Linda,
Congratulations to your niece. No, we don't have any graduations, not for awhile. All nieces and nephews have graduated and now we have to wait for the little ones, who are grandchildren and great nieces and nephews. Loooooong wait.
Hi Linda, Thanks so much for your thoughtful comments about the stress and the weekend get-together! It really drive the point home with me, and I will remember your words today and tomorrow. I really do appreciate it!
No graduations for us this year, but we had several last year. And I have to admit, I am kind of glad about it. :-)
We don't have any family graduating, but as my girls grow up, it seems we always have a friend who is graduating(this year it was 2 special ones) and friends children(another close 2). We were invited to 2 parties,and sadly they were both 2 weekends ago when my daughter was playing softball and we said we'd try to make it, but alas, softball ran long.
I'm all about the celebrating of such momentous occasions!
Have a wonderful weekend
Congratulations to your niece. Graduations are to be celebrated. It's a passing to a new level and maturity in an individual.
Congrats to Sarah!
No one in our family this year :)
I had 2 graduates this year. My daughter graduated from High School and my son from Middle School.
I think graduations ought to be celebrated too!!
Our daughter Heather graduated from college this year. Surprisingly there are no relatives graduating this year. It seems that there has been one of our nieces or nephews graduating every year, but this year is free.
No Graduates this year, unless you count Big J moving on to middle school.
Congratulations to your niece. As I'm sure you're aware, the year your kids graduate comes tons of parties! My niece graduated last night, Nadine on Sunday and then tons of parties! Here we go!
Linda,
This is so coincidental! My daughter just graduated from an all girls school 2 weeks ago. I have pictures on my most recent post if you want to have a look...
Congratulations to your sweet graduate. I hope the future holds many great things for her! :-)

I think you might know, my oldest graduated on May 21st, I wrote a letter to him on my blog shortly after. You can read if you didnt. The post is titled: A Letter to my son (Bama graduates). I cannot beleive it....where does time go?
i have a niece that graduated from high school (in florida) and another niece that graduated from 8th grade (both on matts side of the family). and my sisters son (my nephew) and my best friends littlest both graduated from preshool!
This is the first year that we didn't get any invitations from anyone for a Grad... No nephews or friends or anyone! Whoo - Hoo! Graduation was a couple weeks ago here though!
Well, Tori will be graduating next year at this time...I hope I'll be ready!
And my mom moved out over Spring Break in March....and the skies opened up and the "Hallelujah Chorus" could be heard......
Yep, I have a graduate... and it is bitter sweet... I am SO happy for him, but we are SOOOOOOOOOOO going to miss him!!!
No one graduating here, but it's always a special time when someone is graduating. Enjoy your weekend!
Hugs,
Donna
Congratulations to your niece! Yes, one of my nieces just graduated from high school, but it, too was an invitation only one. Also, a few of the kids that I think of as my own graduated from college. If I can't go to the actual graduation, I always send a card and a little gift. Graduations are an achievement and they are certainly special.
Have a wonderful weekend.
All of the youth in my Sunday School class graduated this year...
They are amazing young men and women.
As for family...'lene's son, "Big J" graduated from middle school and LaLa from Pre-school!
Just one grad this year. My husband's granddaughter is graduating from high school. She'll go to Johns Hopkins in the fall... all the way on the other side of the country :-(
My little sister is graduating from 8th grade. Next year she will be attending the high school I attended, Presentation High School, an all-girls Catholic high school like the one you mentioned. :)
Shawna's Study Abroad
Nope...no relatives graduating this year, but LOTS of friends' kiddos graduating!

This has been a big year for graduations for my family and friends. I'm still late getting those graduation cards in the mail. Thanks for stopping by my blog today. Who knows, maybe we're neighbors. I live in Bakersfield.
I posted about my sweet niece Kelli who graduated from high school recently.
She is precious and I love her to pieces.
I'm off to youth camp.....leaving this afternoon with a friend. We're the cooks so we've gotta go put stuff away and get ready. (mentally and physically) ha!
Keep us in your prayers daily, if you will. We now have a grand total of 59 going. It's gonna be a good week.
Love ya,
Valerie
Linda, I'm a total space cadet. Can you email me your address.
HI Linda...I have 2 nephews that are graduating this year.....I can't believe it! My DS is "graduating" from 8th grade and rolling up to High School......I am WAY too young to have 2 kids in High School...LOL.
Hi Linda ~ yup...my little baby Mark graduated from high school on Saturday. Sheesh how time flies!
Hugz,
Michele
