Photo of the week: From diapers to cap and gown

By Michelle Fong | Wednesday, May 13, 2009, 06:00 AM

Last night, my daughter graduated.

Well, from preschool, that is.

I swear it was just yesterday I brought my precious angel home from the hospital at a tiny 7 pounds.

Not quite 5 years later and more than 30 pounds heavier, my little angel is wearing a cap and gown. It’s hard to believe.

I must admit I got a little teary eyed when she marched into the auditorium to pomp and circumstance. I was suddenly picturing my little girl graduating from high school, then college.

Sigh …

Guess I shouldn’t obsess over those milestones yet. My next battle is to survive the next one — kindergarten … stay tuned!
