Yesterday, I walked in the UNM School of Engineering graduation ceremony. I’m not really sure what to think, truthfully. I was about to cry the entire time, and then when I walked out and saw my family, I burst into tears. My friend tried to hug me and I had to go sit down and bury my face in my hands. I probably miss my mom more than I realize. I wish she could have been there to see me graduate. She knew I was going to, but somehow that doesn’t make it any easier. Last night Matt, the kids and I went to dinner. I found myself leaning my head on his shoulder with a happy heart, so certainly something good has happened. I’m looking forward to doing something other than homework every night as well.
