Zach's Senior Project Presentation!

OK we all those moments as parents when we just aren't sure our kids know what they are doing and literally want to run into the night screaming for help...or maybe that's just me! Anyway, today was Zach's presentation for his senior project, which all seniors are required to do and pass in order to graduate in WA State. Well, I have been watching this process for months and have at times drove him crazy with questions and the need of reassurance that he knows what he is doing and that he is recording everything etc. Well, it seems all that worry was in vain. Today my child who 2 years ago wouldn't stand up in public, let alone speak...gave an awesome presentation! His project was to build a drum set that he could play and create a unigue sound from. His set is a little smaller than a normal drum set I guess. He built them, tuned them and put together a power point to show the whole process/project. He presented it as if he had done it a million times and seemed so comfortable up there. It was an amazing thing to watch and for a mom.. a little moment of glory! It's a tough realization when you have to let your kids grow up, but today I saw Zach a little different. Not a little boy or the funny goofball we all know he is, but a man sharing something he loves with others and doing a very fine job of it. Zach we are sooo proud of you and your huge accomplishment!
