<p>So sad, so happy, so meaningful, so emotional. My S graduated from his small LAC on May 20 and I was moved in a way that surprised even me. (Yes, I cry at Coke commericals.) As far as I was concerned, I was all caught up in the logistics -- the hotel reservation, where we'll meet him, is the younger S getting there in time, which cars should we take -- and then to realize the ceremony was simply to celebrate the many accomplishments and rite of passage of all those wonderful young men and women. And now on to the next chapter . . . . </p>
