White Coat

​I saved my personal day leave for seven months - even skipped on a bucket list concert in September to make sure I had one day of leave to see Evan’s white coat ceremony. I have looked forward to this event for a year! Then the snow storm hit; the ceremony was canceled. A make-up ceremony was scheduled later in the week for a smaller venue, but guests were not allowed. 


No problem. The school agreed to live stream it. We logged in to see this. 


The screen eventually got righted, we listened to multiple guest speakers talk about a lot of nothing, and I counted 51 students walking across the stage. My number 76 was almost up. I had my phone ready to record and screen shot. And the internet went down. Not mine. The school’s!  

No problem. They have a photographer taking pictures to commemorate the occasion. Here’s what I got.



(This expression is my dad all over.)


Grainy. Out of focus. But he’s wearing slacks, a button up, and dress shoes. 

Congratulations to my boy!
