My daughter Fiona has 6 1/2 days til she is finished with high school. She is ready. She is also fearful. There are so many things to consider and to choose. Fi knows the first steps are the scariest. They are for anyone.
I have watched her become more sure of herself though. There is a confidence that has not been there before.
Fiona will stumble from time to time. I know she will do well though.
It has taken a bit for me to get here to say these things. I still look at my daughter and feel she should not be at this point. Ready to graduate. My heart believes her to be the little girl standing with her very bestest friend at the door, drenched in mud. Smiling at having rolled in a huge mud puddle of their making.
Who really is graduating?
