Two weeks ago it was Lizzy graduating from high school, and then last weekend Michelle graduated from eighth grade. Lots of ceremonies and parties, and a time of big transitions and moving on.  Of course I\u2019ve very proud and happy to see them growing up and doing well.  It was a bit poignant for me to say goodbye to ICS, since we\u2019d been there for six years, with both girls going thru and we met and became friends with a lot of other parents.  I\u2019ll definitely miss doing the musicals.  I was involved with five of them, three with the kids and two with the parents and friends, as well as a couple talent shows.  Well they said they\u2019d love to have me back in the orchestra next time the do one, so we\u2019ll see.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile both girls are off to new adventures in the fall.  So it a time well worth celebrating.  One more party coming up this weekend!<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/zingman.com\/blog\/blogpix\/2017\/lizzy-grad03_1200.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/zingman.com\/blog\/blogpix\/2017\/lizzy-grad03_450.jpg\" width=\"450\" height=\"300\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/zingman.com\/blog\/blogpix\/2017\/michelle_grad01.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/zingman.com\/blog\/blogpix\/2017\/michelle_grad01_300.jpg\" width=\"300\" height=\"400\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/zingman.com\/blog\/blogpix\/2017\/ICS01_1200.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/zingman.com\/blog\/blogpix\/2017\/ICS01_450.jpg\" width=\"450\" height=\"300\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>It\u2019s graduation season and this is a big year for us.
