Graduation Day!




Yesterday Jane and I were priveliged to attend laura's graduation from the University of St. Francis with her degree in Educational Leadership. We're proud to say Laura has always been a leader and she will make a fine principal some day soon. Here are a few photos and a poem I wrote to commemorate the occasion. Laura, we're proud of you!
Smiles

Let’s celebrate the journey
That began not with a step,
But a smile
You used to connect,
To brighten the lives
Of those who knew you.

This new journey
Began with a single drive,
A commute from farm to city
To gain wisdom,
Wisdom you’ll use to serve,
To lead, to celebrate success.

A widening circle of smiles,
This time on other parents’ children,
Once again!
