Congrats to the grad

Yesterday was not only David's 3rd birthday, it was the day my baby brother graduated from high school. (We'll always remember that Daniel graduated on June 9.) Even with a serious bout of senioritis while riding the tumultuous end-of-high school emotional roller coaster, Uncle Daniel was thoughtful enough to send David his very own birthday Ziggy Pasta (which David calls his "noodles.") I can't speak for David, but I, personally, find playing with the noodles to be stress-relieving (almost as much as smooshing play-dough). I guess I'm not the only one, since it's popular among the FMHS drama kids--I suppose performing Titanic complete with a hydraulic sinking ship and taking The Rimers all the way to State might require a little stress-relieving activity now and then. Here's a picture of Daniel when he was but a wee junior at "the Mound" and David when he was a big boy of 20 months:
Good luck to David as he embarks on his pre-school years: the friends, the fun, the lessons learned. Good luck to Daniel as he embarks on his college years: the friends, the fun, the lessons learned. Go Cougars!
