In 2010 I started on a very<\/em> part-time basis my Masters degree program through the university I work for, taking one class per term.\u00a0 When I started the program I thought that perhaps one day when I finished and attended my commencement ceremony I might have a child to share the celebration with and lo and behold the day arrived and Sirena was able to be there with me along with the rest of my family. She was a huge inspiration to me in the last year of the program to finish the degree and it meant the world to me that she was there to see her Mama walk across the stage and get handed her diploma.<\/p>\n

Photos from the commencement ceremony…<\/p>\n
