My granddaughter is graduating from High School and I share some of my feelings here. I will attend her last band concert tonight and her graduation on Sunday. I'll be off line for a few days.
I Will Not Cry By Larry Linville I will not cry (sniff) oops I just did I’m trying so hard to hold it in. Going to a happy event as a very proud grandparent. Going with anticipation of granddaughter’s graduation. I will cry because I am sad but I am also very glad. I cry because I’m happy too for all the things she will do. They say men aren’t supposed to cry but that is just a great big lie.

Men don't cry? are they kidding us? of course men cry, when they see their first born (or the second, or the...)and they will cry at every graduation of a granddaughter because they are their Grandpa, and Grandpas can do anything they wish, even cry.
Go grandpa! ! !
