It was a good thing we got there two hours early. Really, it was more like three- so we had a little bit of time to stroll around outdoors and and to sit on a bench, and wait.
Once we went indoors and the ceremony finally started, my mind wandered back to many nights, many, many years ago- sitting at the dining room table together with Helaina, struggling through homework, and teaching her how to organize and how to make lists.
I thought about the nights of encouraging her and telling her how, with a lot of hard work, she was capable of accomplishing so much...
I think about those times, probably more than I should...
