A Grandchild's Kindergarten Graduation

You might've guessed that we would put a picture of our granddaughter in this blog post. Good guess. And she did look awfully cute in her little red graduation gown and cap. But we noticed something else during the ceremony. The parents and grandparents. Yes, the five-year-olds were excited, and it showed on their faces. But on the faces of the parents and grandparents was more than excitement. It was pride. Parenting and grandparenting is hard work, but there are no payoffs that are bigger. Just look at these wonderful people as they take pictures of the kindergarten graduates. This is one thing our books try to capture, how to raise kids and grandkids to reach their potential. And as you can see, it's well worth the effort.
