Girls in white dresses carrying red roses: must be graduation time again at my school! Every year I get a littler tearier, I think, not just because it’s wonderful to see these amazing girls move out into the greater world, but because each year, it seems a little closer to when it will be my own girls, walking across some stage, preparing to spread their wings while I stay behind and cheer them on.

Congratulations to all the graduates!
