And in that moment.... by shesnapped

And in that moment....

How often in life do we catch the exact moment .... the EXACT moment ...

Look close. You can see that his fingers have not quite touched the diploma yet. This was the last moment he was a high school student, a child still. All moments before now culminate in this moment, as he steps across the threshold from childhood to adulthood. Where did the time go? Did I do right by him? Did I prepare him well? How many things do I dare list that I could have, should have, done better. How many opportunities did I let pass by that I regret already? Ahhh, but this boy, THIS boy, this young man, will go far. He will change the world somehow. Though it's the end of this era, he's stepping into a fresh, new adventure. Where will he go? What will he do? Though this mama's heart aches, it's also filled with excitement for the future ...

... if only the tears would dry up so I could see it a little more clearly ... :-)

A super shot.
