they call it pomp and circumstance for a reason

done.

beaming from ear to ear
Biggers took
the 30 steps
with
the 30 words
across a stage in a city 6000 miles away from the woods
right into his future!

i can't say that i have a single recollection of the words he chose to walk with
as he started moving my heart and my head focused on every step
footprints into my mind that i will
never forget
and with all the ceremony
the room was silent as i watched
and cried
and held my breath
and squeezed Team Leader's hand as
hard as he was squeezing mine

30 steps...easy
30 words...breezy
30 seconds...done

the world IS wide
and you have it in the palm of your hand
son
heart of mine
i hope you know how proud of you i am
and what a huge accomplishment this is-
like i said this week:
go now and make every new moment matter
just as much
as the ones you will carry in you heart
forever.

CONGRATULATIONS!!!!
i love you
momma

one step at a time

in 4 hours the transition begins

baccalaureate-downtown-in the oldest church of this beautiful city
the beginning of
pomp and circumstance

and my heart-all his friends here-they take the next few days to
make every day from the beginning to now
matter.

Congratulations Biggers
Hugs to you and the Class of 2012!!!

unarmen und lieben
