Beautiful Saturday
What a beautiful Saturday morning friends. This weekend is supposed to be fantastic. On Monday my granddaughter will graduate from grade eight and then she goes to high school next year. Emily has been chosen to give the valedictorian speech this year in her class. We are so proud of this beautiful & brilliant young girl. I remember seeing her in the hospital when she was born. Now she's graduating from grade school. Oh my, I'm crying with happiness.
My grandaughter, the graduate
------------------------------------------------
After Graduating from High School, David moves away from home to study
at University.
One of his letters home reads:
Dear Father,
University i$ really great.
I am making lot$ of friend$ and $tudying very hard.
With all my $tuff, I $imply ¢an't think of anything I need, $o if you
would like, you can ju$t $end me a card, a$ I would love to hear from
you.
Love, Your $on.
After receiving his son's letter, the father immediately replies by
sending a letter back.
Dear David,
I kNOw that astroNOmy, ecoNOmics, and oceaNOgraphy are eNOugh to keep
even an hoNOr student busy.
Do NOt forget that the pursuit of kNOwledge is a NOble task, and you can
never study eNOugh.
Love,
Dad
The young accounting graduate, fresh out of uni and knowing everything,
applied for his first job.
The prospective employer asked him what starting salary he was looking
for.
"Oh, around $100,000 a year, depending on the benefits package."
"Well, how does this sound? Five weeks annual leave, 22.5%
superannuation, paid expenses to overseas conferences every year, home
telephone reimbursed and a company car replaced every 20,000 kilometers,
say a Mercedes convertible."
The graduate sat up straight and tried not to look excited.
"Wow. Are you kidding?"
"Yeah. But you started it."
A young man hired by a supermarket reported for his first day of work.
The manager greeted him with a warm handshake and a smile, gave him a
broom and said, "Your first job will be to sweep out the store."
"But I'm a college graduate," the young man replied indignantly.
"Oh, I'm sorry. I didn't know that," said the manager. "Here, give me
the broom – I'll show you how."
It was graduation day and Mom was trying to take a picture of their son in a cap and gown, posed with his father.
"Let’s try to make this look natural" she said. "Junior, put your arm around your dad’s shoulder."
The father answered, "If you want it to look natural, why not have him put his hand in my pocket?"
-------------------------------------------------------
Graduating from either grade school, high school or college, it is a great accomplishment. Congratulations all the graduates.
