Congratulations to our Graduate!!!

Tonight at 9:30 pm, out son Alexander Jon walked across the stage at Grace Church in Eden Prairie to accept his diploma and become a graduate of Minnetonka High School. These last three years have not been easy for Alex. After moving here from Southern California there have been many challenges for him to overcome. Through blood, sweat and some tears he has risen to the challenges and over come them one by one. He is now a young man who is confident and poised to take his future by the scruff of the neck and make it his own. Sitting in the audience watching him accept the fruit of his accomplishment I was hit with a wave of various emotions. Pride for his success, sadness for the end of this chapter of his life with us and hope full for all the wonderful opportunities his college years at Nebraska will hold for him. Chris and I are so proud there are really no words to accurately describe it. I just know that he is our son, we are proud of him and we love him. God Bless you Alex!

Graduation Day

In a little more than 14 hours from now, our middle son Alexander will be walking across the stage to accept his High School Diploma from Minnetonka High. It has been a long hard road for Alex since we moved here from Southern California. Being the new kid from a strange state, he had many challenges in getting used to the academic standards, the weather, the kids, and the pull to want to go back to California. A lot to deal with for a 14 year old. But, from adversity comes opportunity. I have to say that Alex never gave up, even in the darkest of moments. This certainly could have gone far differently, with grave and unfortunate consistences. He worked extremely hard to find his own voice, make friends that love and accept him for who he is and make a future that is bright with opportunity. I am from the bottom of my heart proud of him. He is my son, and I love him very much. God bless you AJ, enjoy the day as the momentum builds to the ceremony tonight!
