    I’m interrupting my regularly scheduled recipe program to bring you this special announcement:

    My handsome son, Julian, the graduate.

    The senior class custom of jumping into the lake (I made sure I was holding the diploma!)

    Ready to take on whatever comes next.

    Bravo, my boy, my joy. Well done. I love you, Mom.

      Thank you, guys! I have not stopped grinning since commencement and my feet aren’t quite yet back on the ground. Can you tell that I’m a glowingly proud mama?

      Yes, Julian is handsome! Who does he take after more? mamma? or pappa? :)
      Congrats to Julian! Jumping in the lake looks fun! We never had a lake close by, instead we went to Disneyland for an all nighter!

      Thanks for the well-wishes everyone!

      I definitely think Julian is growing into my side of the family – he was his dad completely while young but now he really resembles two of my cousins.

      Flan – maybe we have 6 degrees of separation…

      He is handsome!

      Love the shot you got of him that has two guys high-fiving in the background. That is just the epitome of high school graduation day!

      That high-five was such a great surprise – could not have planned it better.
