Mr. 16 graduated from Year 10 last week. The photo above was taken at The Nepean River just before his celebratory formal dinner. All of his classmates were out of their usual head-to-toe school uniform. I hardly recognised any of them. The girls looked a little older than usual, the boys a little younger; all looked beautiful, innocent.

Beneath the cool exterior he was cooking: it was 38 degrees celcius!:

One of Mr 16's best mates ended the night singing That's Amore and all joined in with a sing-along:
I wish every one of these lovely people all the very best in their chosen path, be it a further two years of senior school study (as in Mr. 16's case) or a new start in their future career.
Bless you all, Class of 2009.

Shadowthorne: Thank you...but I won't tell him your lovely compliment for fear his head will swell!
Spencer L Casey: Thank you so much! You are very kind.
He looks great, Mervat,38C in a suit though.....wow. I hope they all had a blast.xx♥
Congrats to the suited-booted (presumably) Mr 16. Sixteen is a wonderful age to be - life has to many roads to take at that age.
Natalie: Thank you Nat! The girls were suitably dressed, however! And they all had an absolute ball and still showed up for graduation the next day!
Sucharita Sarkar: Thank you very much! YEs, he was suited AND booted...even in that heat...poor kid! Sixteen is possibly the best age of all!
That post sent shivers down my spine. It all happens so fasr. I remembered my 18-year-olds's school prom two summers ago. It is true they grow so so fast.
But what a handsome young man.
Congrats to your older son. Mervat, your family is so beautiful. Thank you for sharing these special times.
Congratulations to your handsome son! You all look beautiful in the pictures :)

Congratulations to Mr. 16. He is a handsome fellow and I'm sure the whole family is proud of him.

Congratulations! A very handsome and stylish (and clever I bet) young man. I wish my own son (who's just turned 16) will have the same successful results soon (His GCSEs exams are in May/June). All the best. Ciao. A.
Aww, Mr. 16 looks so handsome. You have a beautiful family!
What a proud day for the family, and doesn't Mr 16 look so grown up?
Lovely photos, really lovely to see such a happy family.
