Day 159 Baccalaureate


Graduation season is in full swing!  Today was the baccalaureate for Osbourne High School.  Emily looked so scholarly in her graduation gown.  The seniors were encouraged to to forth and do something that mattered that the next five years do count.  That it is not a time to play, party, or drink, but to make it the future they want.  One of the speakers said how that christian faiths lose 80% of the youth followers during the five years following high school, so they need to hang onto their faith.  I hope that the speakers touched some of the youth in this service, but I found it lacking in the spirit.   I am thankful for the religious studies that our children receive through seminary and institute and know that Emily will hang onto her faith.  I love her motto "Do what is right no matter what."
Emily and her friend Stephanie
