Hooray For Son 1A!!

Okay, I'm a little late with the pictures, but wanted to send a congratulations to Son #1A for his recent graduation from the University of Alberta.  Our little boy is growing up.  Sniff.

In keeping with tradition, he kept telling us that he didn't even want to attend the convocation.  And in keeping with tradition, we kept telling him he had no choice.  Thankfully he was a good sport and smiled for the pictures.

And, also in keeping with tradition, he smuggled in a book under his gown to read when the convocation speakers got boring.  Luckily this time around the book was hardly given a glance -- the speakers were very entertaining!

So now Son 1A is a certified teacher, hoping to work with junior high school students.  He needs a job.  Along with a thousand other young graduates.  

Now, if only all those retired teachers would remove their names from the "Substitute" list so all these young kids could get some subbing experience and eventually get offered a job.

Congratulations Son 1A -- We're proud of you!!!
