What a week.... Tues night I watch my last little girl walk across the same field her two older sisters walked across. There was so much pride and there was also a lot 'what now' in me. My little girl is growing up and it want be long she also will be out there on her own. It's as things are ment to be, but I'm sure I'll feel a since of loss.
The girls all went to Orange Beach this week and with Mary being going the old house is just that an old house. Even thro most of the time she's out and about I know that she'll be home and that when she comes home I'll hear her say 'I'm home Dad.. I love you'... then and only then can I go to sleep. Now I think that it want be long and this also will only be a memory for me to look back on.
Today I heard something again that really hit me... we were talking about Mary going to school this fall and that I would pay for it as there's no way she could get any help... (don't get me started on this), but anyway someone said that their kids had to get the money themselves... it was them that was going to benefit from going to school... and it's not this person didn't have the money.. My God.. I would and I do give my kids my last dollar.. if there's anything I can do to help them get ahead in this life I'll do it.... it's only money and I don't know anyone that takes a cent with them... not that I would have any to take anyway...
I guess tonight I'm just feeling a little down.... I'm not sure how I could explain it... I just feel like life is passing me by.... I'm alive and that's about it.... there's no LIFE...

Pascagoula High School Class of 2009
Well Mary Kathryn... your time to shine has come baby. Yesterday at church when you walked in a million things went thru my mind and all of them were about how proud of you I am.
Mary, I know high school wasn't the best time for you as friends go, but you took the high road and didn't go down the to the levels of others. I know there were times your so called friends hurt up, but you never stopped caring about them. Mary these are the very things that Bro Ben was talking about yesterday... The things that make you special.. I know something about you that everyone that has meet you and all those that will ever met will come to find out... Mary Kathryn you are very special. You have beauty on the outside that is 1000 times more on the inside. You care about people, even the ones that have hurt you. You, Melissa, and Lauren are the most caring people and I hope you will never lose this love of others.
Your Mom and I are so proud of what you've done and we look forward to see what you will do. Mary... always remember what Bro Ben said yesterday... reach for the stars... there's nothing wrong for wanting big things... dream big dreams, but always live in the real world. I know there's nothing you can't do Mary I've seen you work... You have the 'CAN DO' attitude.
One last thing Mary.. remember Bro Ben said yesterday that the pepole sitting behind you'll in church would always be there for you... There's nothing on this earth that would ever stop my loving or helping you... You just always remember the road that leads home...
Love you baby girl... Dad
