Randy Graduated!
Randy finished his requirements for a bachelor's degree in December, and
walked with his class at graduation on April 4. The ceremony was held on
a Friday evening in a Baptist church one town over. He didn't want me to make
a big fuss about it or invite people. He said when he's finished his master's
degree (he started an MBA program in January), he'll have a party then. There
were refreshments after in the church basement, but I couldn't go down with
the stroller.
I wish I had a photo of the best part: Afterward in the parking lot, Randy
was walking back to his car (we had separate cars because he had to go an
hour early to rehearse) and he turned around to ask me something. Just as
I looked up at him, a shooting star
went by! I couldn't believe it! What a sight that was, him in his cap
and gown with the shooting star behind him.
Here's the requisite backyard graduation photo.
