They Grow Up Fast

After seeing Johns image http://www.pbase.com/image/96580556 I had to think
of my oldest son's grad. I shot this on Friday as he got his handshake.
He is a graduate of Water Resources Engineering Technology.
It's hard to believe that he is almost 25 years old and we used to call him "Jamie".
But to his friends he is "James" (but still Jamie to me).
He has landed a darn good job and is a great kid, or should I say fine young man.
Yes John they grow up way to fast....but I still can remember Jamies first bike ride.. :-)

OMG...he looks like you!!!!! Congratulations, Jamie! And, to you too, Mike for raising such a great kid! He'll do well in the world. He's got a great dad!

Congratulations Mike. I know that the diploma is Jamie's accomplishment, but at least part of his development as a fine young man is yours.

Congrats to you both. You have to be a very proud dad!
Love the look on the guy behind your son.

Jeans to graduation? He's a rebel like his old man. ;)
A proud moment in the Stobbs family. Congrats James!!
