Big girl now

Sayaka (R) graduated from High School in Canada last week and in the process makes me feel ancient :)
as well as proud!

Saya started studying with me when she was knee-high to a grasshopper - think I've mentioned her before here - and has escaped the clutches of the education system here in Japan. She has blossomed into a fabulous young lady as you can see...and there is a lot more to her than good looks.

Congratulations on your graduation, Sayaka
