At the Crossroads

This is a young man at a crossroads.
He will soon collect his high school diploma.
He has earned it!

It's time to leave his youth behind and venture into adulthood.

Derek may be leaving his youth behind, but certainly not his youthfulness.

He's a serious guy with a lot of passion and life goals,

I love how playful he is.

Derek is a snappy dresser.

We didn't quite make it to using everything he brought.

We were losing our light and we had one place left to go.

Since Derek enjoys a good cup of coffee or tea,
we went to his favorite coffee shop.

He enjoyed some tea with his mom.
I had to have one too.  It was delicious!
