Happy Graduation, Teti!

 Can you spot Teti in this sea of hats and gowns?  Yep, there she is!  Sportin' them sweet neon glasses!
 Way to rock the shades, Teti!  Love it!
HAPPY GRADUATION!!!





Dear Teti,
Mommy tells us college graduation is really the most bittersweet time of your life.  We didn't understand that word, so she put some sugar on a lemon and let us suck on it, ah!  THAT'S bittersweet!  
We're glad we weren't there, we love you and everything but we had a lot more fun playing with Grampa and Grammy and building things than we would have had standing outside for 2 hours listening to Mama cuss at total strangers for not using their damn manners.  Daddy told us he'll never move us to the Northeast because Mommy's blood pressure rose to dangerous levels.  All because people don't know how to say "Excuse me" and stuff like that.  Anyway we digress, but we're 2 and 3 and that happens...
So, Teti, happy graduation.  Mama could get all sappy and say all the right things right now to try and make this easier on you but that's what other people are for.  Mama is your big Sis, she'll let everyone else do the hard work.  What Mama will say to you is this: it gets better, so much better and just when you think everything couldn't possibly - it gets even BETTER.  Promise.  This is the time for you to figure out what you're really made of, Kiddo and you might surprise yourself, but you won't surprise us. We already know what you're made of (and it ain't sugar and spice).
We love you so much.  Congratulations on your graduation and all the best for the rest of your life.
All the best, Babe.
Love,
Mama, Daddy, Lilly and Anna

Wish you two girls were there, but standing out in the hot sun would not have been good for your little baby skins!

I can't wait to see you all in a couple of weeks!
