She did it! Kristina graduated from high school on June 10, 2009. It was a nice ceremony but freezing cold. We got great parking with the use of my mother-in-laws handicap placard...thanks Sandy! She also saw us before it started so she was able to wave at us as she went up. My big beef with it was that Vintage high school does not require a ticket for the ceremony so it was PACKED and freezing (oh, did I already mention is was freezing). There were families that were literally saving three full rows of bleachers, all the way across! It was annoying and yes I got an attitude with a parent(or two). Brian wasn't there yet and I had just climbed to the very top of the bleachers with an infant in an infant seat in my arms and I wasn't about to climb back down so MOVE OVER!!
The other thing we get to look forward to five more times: our children will be one of the first to receive their diploma (Kristina was number 4)and then we get to sit through another 800 kids before it's over. IT WAS TORTURE! Don't worry, Kristina agrees; she was freezing her behind off and couldn't participate in the beach ball throwing because she was in the front row (sometimes having an A name isn't always the best). Congratulations Tina!
Oh, I forgot to mention, Brian knew the man that handed Kristina her diploma, he works in the DA's office. That was pretty cool.

How do you REALLY feel about the event? (wink wink)
Hey, this is my journal so you gotta tell it like it is :)Parents should consider the postpartum female before they act badly. If only people could be as perfect as me ;)
