Meagan Graduates from South Pasadena High School, 1998

 Meagan graduated from South Pasadena High School.  She spent her last two years of high school and it was a very good experience for her.

Jennifer saved a seat for me and I was able to good pictures which I currently cannot find except for this one.


I had made her a graduation dress out of white pique and she said it was the prettiest one there.

Jennifer had Baby Marissa with her and she is darling.  I hope Meagan has all those pictures and I hope I find them!!!

It was a very enjoyable time and I am so glad I was able to drive up to Pasadena.

I gave her a charm bracelet with the following poem:

A memory bracelet I give you, so you will not forget,
That you are loved and cherished by your own Grandma Janet.

The sun is to remind you of your roots near the sea,
Born and raised in La Jolla, what a wonderful place to be.

Christmas was always a special time, So I give you a Christmas Bell,
The joys and memories you gave me are too numerous to tell.

Of course, the piggy bank and penny is not too hard  to guess,
It represents you and your thrifty ways, as opposed to mine I confess.

The Teddy Bear plays a dual role, of my Grandchildren you were Number One,
And then the trip to Yellowstone, with you, Kristi, and Grandpa were fun.

Graduating from high school in June, and then off to college in the fall, 
Turning 18 in July, Yes, "98" will be an eventful year to recall!

The telephone represents the "office", where you learned to do "paperwork".
I loved our talks and time together, and you were never one to shirk.

The middle charm you'll have to discover, by flipping. the circle so fast,
Congratulations and best wishes, Meagan, may our closeness always last.

Unfortunately Meagan is not a fan of charm bracelets but I hope she likes the love from my heart I tried to show her.

And now she is on her own!!!  A college girl, so hard to believe the time goes so fast.  I am so glad John is a fan of education and that she is an excellent student, it will be a wonderful time for her, lucky girl!

We celebrate her birthday party at Linda's home.
