Pomp & Circumstance

We laughed, we choked up, we wistfully smiled, we ate, we imbibed, and we played this momentous weekend in celebration of Aimee’s graduation from nursing school, Adelaide’s naming ceremony and baptism, and Mother's Day.

Aimee, in a fuzzy sea of red gowns and mortarboards, receives her nursing degree after a two-year blur of effort.

We all laugh, because getting babies wet is one of the highlights of baptism.

As the old saying goes: Celebrate your mother with ten glasses of shiraz and platefuls of pasta and she'll love you all the days of your life!

Oh, extremely heartfelt congratulations, you guys! You both have accomplished so much in two short years--it's impressive and you should be very proud.

Congrats, Aimee! how exciting to be a dual career woman (a nurse and a mom!) and to have this step in your schooling completed!

Congratulations, Aimee. Graduation from nursing school was a huge relief for me. Hope you can take some time off before job-hunting and just enjoy that sweet little bundle!

Congratulations on so many accomplishments this year, Aimee and Joel! Aimee: I sent an email to your yahoo account. Is that still good?
Joel: I am jealous you are done with step one. I don't take it until end of June so studying is just getting started...
