Christina Graduates

Christina couldn't have looked more excited when she walked to her seat at commencement.



Walking here with her diploma next to the school's valedictorian, Manisha Narayanan.



The traditional tossing of the caps.



A family shot taken by Alex. The school mailed 8 tickets to share between us and Christina's mom. The letter made it sound as if there weren't any extra to be had. As it turned out there was definitely room in the stands for more people. I suppose they have to limit the number of people in case each graduate had 20 family members and friends that wanted to come to the ceremony.



Congratulations Christina!

Today is your day.
You're off to Great Places!
You're off and away!

You have brains in your head.
You have feet in your shoes
You can steer yourself
any direction you choose.
You're on your own. And you know what you know.
And YOU are the guy who'll decide where to go.

excerpted from Oh, the Places You'll Go by Dr. Seuss
