This will be a short post and mostly photos. The graduation ceremony is always lovely, but it's not my favorite part. My favorite parts are the hour before and the few minutes after the ceremony. Our teachers robe up in the same room with the graduates. There are happy conversations happening between teachers and their (almost former) students.
There are teachers taking selfies with students and each other. It is a joyous time with just us.
My best friends and I take photos together, just like kids do. This is the last year that our "Blue Pod + One" photo will look like this because Cheryl is leaving us for other employment. It is also the last photo of all the Beths that will look like this one.
Even after all these years, teachers have some difficulty with their caps and gowns. That hood is always impossible, and no one seems to know the right way to arrange it.
Just before the ceremony, we gather together and pray with them one last time.
