Happy Graduation Grandma Ardy!


Dear Mom/Grandma Ardy,

Congratulations on receiving your Master's Degree of Education! We are so proud of you and all your accomplishments.

You didn't need a second diploma to be a true Master of Education! No piece of paper could replace the decades you've served as a teacher, mentor and parent. Certainly the new "theories" you've learned will be valuable tools, but will never outweigh your passion for your job, patience with your students and outgoing personality.

Thank you for inspiring us with curiosity and motivating us to find answers.

We love you and are grateful for you!

Love,
Your Family

Since we couldn't be with you to celebrate your graduation, we had one of our own.

And when you're bored to tears during your commencement, just remember that you weren't the only one.

Like most people, Gavin chose to skip the festivities all together and receive his diploma via the mail. He wouldn't even put on the "stupid square hat" (those were his exact words) even though he helped make it.
