Here is the latest news, along with some photos.
John graduated from St. Bonaventure last week. They had an awards ceremony one night at the church. He received a few small awards for maintaining good grades in several subjects.
This was taken just before the awards ceremony. It was a little dark in the church.
Afterwards, there was a dance for the kids. Students danced the first dance with the parent of the oposing sex.
This was John's star on the wall. He is famous!
The next night there was a graduation mass, with the kids in caps and gowns. He is wearing his rewards from the previous night.
Elizabeth had a graduation event at the church as well.
We spent this morning at the beach for the Huntington Beach pier swim. Allison got off to a bad start by falling a few times, and is not in the best of shape because of all of her down-time as the result of her oral surgery. She still managed to be 4th girl! John however had a banner day. He swam like an animal to get 2nd place boy, 4th place overall. He also got a trophy for being the 1st boy resident of the city of Huntington Beach. He has 2 more years in this age group.

Some mushy stuff...
Once again, I thank you for the good start you gave me in life, and for the many years of providing a fine example of what a man is and should be. Thank up so much, and I love you.
Your loving son...
