After a particularly hectic day at school (we are getting ready for our three day middle school trip to Indy/Cincy), Ian and I ventured to G-town College for a senior banquet with Caitlan. The food wasn’t great, but KK looked beautiful. I was glad Ian was with us. Baccalaureate was in the chapel. Our speaker was an Episcopalian priest which I thought was pretty cool at a Baptist college, but needless to say his talk didn’t knock my socks off–I dozed through most of it. At the end, though, Ian and I were able to sing a rousing rendition of ODE TO JOY, and that woke me up. I had forgotten what a good voice my son had. Seeing Caitlan in her black cap and gown with ropes, tassels, and medals, was moving. I thought of how her dad looked, for some reason. Then back to KK’s dorm where we met up with Kyle and Brendan just in from Louisville. Kyle stayed to help her pack up her room, and the boys and I headed back to Kelley Ridge. Having them here is a blessing.
