Mosaic Monday

Pin It Now!

I'm joining in on Mary's Mosaic Monday today. I apologize for using photos you've already seen here on my blog to make these mosaics but it was a busy weekend...
My son, Vince, graduated from college! He graduated with highest honors, Phi Beta Kappa with a double major in Political Science and Economics and a minor in Statistics! I couldn't be any prouder!!! His dad hosted a graduation party at their home in San Francisco and we really had a great time. I'll share some photos later this week.


Stop by Mary's~Little Red House to see more mosaics on Mosaic Monday!

Update: I'll announce the winner of the giveaway tomorrow.

June said...

And proud you should be Cindy. All those years you nurtured and loved, helped with homework, encouraged him to go to school even on days maybe he didn't want to, helped with special projects and all the bedtime stories you read him, have now all paid off. Something a mother should be very proud of indeed.
Smiles,
June

Penny Sue said...

Dear Miss Cindy,

I'm so sorry to be going back so far from your current posts... I will try harder in the future to post one comment on your latest post. However, I've been gone longer than 1 week... and I can't help myself from commenting on your beautiful blog pages. Please forgive me. If you get a chance, please stop by my blog to see a little series of my newest puppy in my life.

Anyhow, my first comment in regards to this post is congratulations to the proud Mama Peacock! That is great news about your son and I'm glad that you were able to enjoy a great time between graduation and the party. It is so gratifying to have that sense of comfort/accomplishment/and pride in our children.

Hugs,
Penny Sue
