STEPHANIE REGINA HERBERT

Stephanie states she will be going into 3rd grade this year, in room 12 at A.B. Day School.  She is proud to say she was on the Honor Roll again this year, received all A’s & B’s. In June this year Stephanie was recognized by the School District of Philadelphia for her Art Work.  (See Photos below).

She says she had fun on a trip to New York this summer-realizing her dream of going to American Girl Place and also buying a doll who she named Paris Brooklyn Herbert.  She was thrilled to be at a Tea Party there with some of her family and her new doll.  She enjoyed a Chocolate Mousse Flower Pot desert- she put the Flower in her dolls hair. On the way home from NY she met a friend who said she also had an American Girl Doll, they had fun talking and singing songs.

CONGRATS ON YOUR COLLEGE GRADUATION CHRISTOPHER W. HERBERT

DSC_1756Christopher Herbert, Jr.  says he’s having a good summer so far, mostly working. He is looking for a better job and wants to buy a car. He’s proud to say he graduated from college in March this year from The Art Institute of Philadelphia with an Associate’s Degree in Digital Film Making and Video Production. He feels blessed that he’s living in his own apartment but would like to go back to the days when he would fall asleep on the couch and wake up in his bed, no concerns- a time when he had freedom and no responsibilities: he didn’t have to cook, clean, wash clothes or pay bills, Lol. He wants someone to carry him- he wants to fly, but doesn’t want to have to flap his wings, he just wants to soar.  Lol. He said his parents used to say ‘enjoy your youth while you’re young,’ “but I would always say to them, I can’t wait ‘til I get grown!” A bit of advice he would like to give to all of his young cousins is to “live and enjoy your life and don’t worry about what other people are doing! At the end of the day, what they’re doing won’t help or hurt you. Follow your dreams!”

(Posted on FB 3/23/2013 by GM Mary Herbert-) below- Congratulations to our #1 Grandson, Christopher (Kareem) Herbert, Jr. on his graduation yesterday from The Art Institute of Philadelphia. Here are some photos that I shot last night. We had a great time celebrating!
