Wauwatosa East class of 2024 | Melissa
We’ve gotten to the point in the school year when we are LESS than a month to graduation. These kids are READY… and all the moms are, like, “nooooo!” Including my friend Mara whose beautiful daughter graduated next month from Wauwatosa East High School.
I am so glad to introduce you to this talented, kind and loving young lady. She is going to do some (more) really amazing things. Just watch.
Here is Melissa…. the miniature version from 5th grade promotion…
Fast forward to Melissa as a high school senior. It’s like life flashed before our eyes.
