Yay, Mommy's Done With School!

Keeping kiddies occupied awaiting the ceremony.  Or, perhaps during the 90 minute ceremony.

Receiving the award for best thesis (toot toot).

Going back up for the degree.  And, "lost it" when "YAY MOMMY!" could be heard.

With Hugh, my brilliant thesis advisor who was always full of encouragement (I got lucky compared to other horror stories from classmates with other advisors.)
YAY!

A productive couple of years!  I introduced the kids to the professors as "this is who I had morning sickness with" or "this is who I had a hard time climbing the stairs of that historic building tour with".

Proud Grandma.

Dan's bummed to not have a graduate student wife anymore (he still obviously has the wife).

"So this is the nice man you spoke to on the phone when I was a newborn..."

Getting inducted into the "Bernd Sunflower Society by his lovely widow Enell.

Lucy also had the privilege of having Bernd being in mommy's tummy.
