Senior breakfast at Galt House!

Today was such a beautiful day.  It started with meeting Marissa and the other students of NOHS at the Galt House Hotel downtown Louisville for the annual Senior Breakfast.  NOHS is the only school that I know that does this - and I love it.  It's a chance to celebrate the seniors' accomplishments in a general way (no one specific) and share in a special moment with just your senior and her parents.  

The breakfast started at 9:30 am.  We sat at a table of Marissa's friends that will be attending BYU:  Maddison Dodson, Tori Simpson, Avery Pryor and their parents.

I found myself tearing up at the idea of my little sweet Marissa growing up into adulthood.  She has come so far.  She has accomplished so much, but even more than that she is such a wonderful person - she cares so much for others and gives of herself freely!  I love to see her love and compassion.  She gives 100% in everything she does.  She is so well balanced and organized.  She is ready for the next step in her lift!  We are so proud of her!

Marissa had a wonderful time going around and getting pictures with her friends.  I was the "professional photographer"  once again.

Avery has become a member of our family and I love him like a son.  I'm so proud of him!  He's done so well in school.  I felt so bad for him because his step-mom didn't know to bring him a letter.
