Just returned Monday from Spokane where I attended Granddaughter Kaila's Graduation from East Valley High School.Their motto, "If we cannot find a road to success, we will make one".She plans to go on to become a science teacher.

Making Your Road To Success

You’ll don your cap and gown
In this year two thousand four
Twelve years of study paying off
As you enter "real" life’s door.

You plan more years ahead
Of study of a Science course
To teach others what you learn
And to be the Learning source.

Quite an accomplishment
In this changing world today
Where so many kids don’t know
And never, find their way.

I know everyone is very proud
And know you’ll be a great Success
And just how far you may go
Is, anybody’s guess.

So, Congratulations, Kaila
The whole World is at your feet
And, I know you’ll leave your footprints
Down every traveled street.

Abe, give your Granddaughter our congratulations as well!  It's not easy getting through 12 years of school...not in today's times and conditions.

Give her my best, will you?
