Yesterday I received a very special invitation. Due to unforeseen circumstances, my niece had several extra tickets for her college graduation. While I understood the need to prioritize attendees when graduation plans were being discussed, I am delighted to be able to witness this amazing milestone in person. Recognizing the importance of my attending, Scott immediately started to find me a hotel room semi-local to the university. I'll be 20 minutes away tomorrow morning, allowing me to relax and actually sleep before the 8:30 start time.
I am so proud of my niece. She has worked so hard, both academically and literally, throughout her college career. She has already accepted a position as a social worker. I swell with pride when I imagine the families and lives that she will enhance through her efforts.
What a great way to kick off Mother's Day weekend!
Pics tomorrow.
