I know that I have talked a lot about my oldest son Jedi graduating from high school this year. But I simply cannot help it! While he is not the first child that I have had to graduate from high school, his commencement is very special to me.

 

There were many complications with my pregnancy with my oldest son. He was born a few month early, and doctors were not sure if he would be okay. Yet he came through it all healthy and strong, and grew up to be not only a wonderful son, but a truly awesome young man.

To see him walk across the graduation stage and receive his diploma was one the happiest and most heartfelt moments of my life. And to know that he is entrusting his father and I to be there for him and guide him as he enters into his college years makes me even happier.

The enduring bond that we share and his academic accomplishments are reasons to celebrate not just on one particular day, but every day. I do so by making time for mother and son nights out, and walks and talks in the park – sharing moments of love and laughter and Coca-Cola from our neighborhood Schnucks stores, just the two of us.

With so much negativity going on in the world today involving young men, I am very proud of the fact that I can boast that my ‘young man’ is doing positive things! This is something that I tell him every day. He has a great head on his shoulders and a bright future ahead of him. And Hubby and I plan to be there for him every step of the way, sharing our own Cokes as we work hard to secure his future, as well as our own.

As I look forward to the years ahead, I know that there will be plenty moments for us to share a Coke in celebration of his everyday victories, and in supporting of him when college life gets tough. And when the time comes around again for him to don a cap and gown, and cross the graduation stage to receive his college degree, he can rest assured that all of us will be right there cheering him on with love and ready to share an ice cold Coke to propose a toast to his successful moments of life that lie ahead.
