Exactly a year ago today when my son was graduating from college, I told him I was a little bit sad; sad that this chapter of life ("with all of the privileges of being an adult but very little of the responsibility of being one") was coming to an end.

I find myself thinking a lot about all those who've worked hard to complete their degrees this graduation season, those first-in-their family-ever grads from high school or college, those who've juggled raising families or jobs or challenging circumstances to get to this finish line but whose celebrations this year will look a lot different. Despite the lack of festivities, my hope for all the 2020 graduates is that this "end of the beginning" will be full of sweet memories and light and hope and dreams, and fun, too.
