"Only YOU Mom!!!"


When my daughter graduated from college, I thought I arrived early enough to get a pretty decent seat but it was so crowded there was standing room only and that was 3 deep with absolutely NO chance of seeing anything.



I wandered around the grounds trying to find a "peek hole" somewhere, but to no avail. Then as fate would have it, I ran into one of the members I knew from the local YMCA where I worked. I had not seen him in years and as we started talking he told me that he had taken a job with the college. My eyes lit up and I asked if there was anything he could do for me to find me a seat.

I never expected that he would find me the best seat in the house. He took me up to the Press Box and I had a front row seat and the most wonderful view of the graduation. I didn't know where my daughter was and I was so excited that I texted her and told her to look up at the box. I was so excited that I didn't care if I embarrassed her or not. I started waving and jumping up and down. She found it quite amusing and texted me back with, "Only You Mom!"

It was such a fabulous stroke of luck to run into Antonio....or was he there just waiting for me.....fate certainly found me that day!!!
