Just when I thought I have been numbed by graduation moments whenever March comes, it soon became my son’s turn to march on the stage to get his “moving up” certificate having successfully made it to the next level from Junior Casa 1/GLLP 2 to Junior Casa 2. This is his first taste of a graduation ceremony.
I did not cry during my own graduation from college, but tears fell when it was my son’s. It was a struggle to hold back these tears of joy as I marched with my son. It was a struggle to pretend that the graduation song wasn’t penetrating deep into my emotional nerves to mark a great milestone. It’s cliché but true: it’s wonderfully different once one becomes a mom. A very special feeling is born that only a mother understands.
I am mighty proud of you Kyle David, my beloved son! Daddy and I love you so much. May Almighty Yahweh bless you always.
