Graduating- May 14, 2012
Have you ever had one of those moments where you can’t believe what you’re looking at? You can’t believe you are in that moment? You have to stare and force yourself to remember.
I held up my iPhone to record the video and took pictures with my camera held high. I wanted to capture the feeling of watching my little sister deliver the student commencement as she received her Master’s degree. My heart swelled up and I couldn’t stop smiling as I heard her eloquent words. I’ve always been in awe of her ambition and talent. She continues to amaze me. Our whole family was so proud of her and my brother-in-law. My sister Julie and her husband Kevin got their MBA’s from American University this weekend.
Oh, and my toddler was an angel all weekend even after two 5 hour car trips, multiple evenings at nice restaurants, an entire commencement ceremony, a fever and a runny nose. I was proud of her too.
My Mother’s Day present was Sunday morning when she curled up in bed with me and we slept. I can’t remember the last time I was so at peace. I hope you all had a happy Graduation Season and Mother’s Day too!
Spread it around:
