Mamaw, Kevin, and I met Mary and Sarah in Atlanta for Sarah's graduation from Agnes Scott. We arrived Thursday, too late for the practice and microphone check for our part in the next day's Baccalaureate service, but with plenty of time to visit with each other and have Sarah show us her favorite store--the DeKalb's Farmer's Market
Friday evening, after the Baccalaureate, we walked around campus, admiring the new chapel, enjoying the new garden/meditation space,
and revisiting my "friend," Robert Frost.
Saturday morning was graduation. The weather threatened rain, but we ended up with clouds and breezes and only a few splatters of sprinkles. Sarah graduated cum laude with a Bachelor's Degree in History and minors in Psychology and Religious Studies.
Now one would think that we'd find ourselves enjoying a delicious meal after graduation, but instead we headed back to Sarah's apartment to help with clean up and packing. That way the girls could get on the road home right after church the next morning. With the whole family chipping in, Sarah's part (and more) of the clean-up was completed with enough time for Mary and her to enjoy dinner together and for Mamaw, Kevin, and me to go rest in the hotel room!
Wow! My sweet Sarah is a college graduate!
