she did it!
alex is officially a "forever buff"!
I had grand plans of putting together a video of the entire University of Colorado Boulder weekend, complete with hat tosses and celebratory meals, but since we’ve returned, life has been life-ing even more than usual.* So I’m afraid my amateur filmmaking skills will have to be shared another time. Instead, here are some of the official graduation pictures I took of Alex in the shadow of Boulder’s stunning Flatirons, as well as a few places around campus.
Suffice it to say that Marcus and I are beyond thrilled for Alex: she worked her tail off this semester (21 hours!). She still has a few more hours to complete before she receives her diploma, but she’s loved her major and has earned great grades thus far, so we have no doubt that by the end of June, she’ll officially have her Bachelor of Science in Strategic Communications. Not bad for someone who transferred universities, switched majors, and even moved states during her sophomore year — yet still managed to cross the stage on time.
That’s my girl.
* Life-ing life: in the next 3 weeks, I’ll be cleaning up and moving out of my house and getting ready for my last keynote (join me!), before a full relocation to the UK. To say I’m feeling a bit overwhelmed would be an understatement. So please excuse my absence during the coming weeks, friends — I’ll see you next time from Bath, United Kingdom!
If you enjoyed this post, feel free to share it with friends who you think might enjoy it. It’s a quick, easy way to support my work, and I’d be deeply grateful.
Mazel tov! For those of us who feel like we’ve grown up with each other’s kids (or at least we’ve grown up with each other as parents) it just drops my jaw every time. What a wonderful thing to share. Thank you. ❤️
Yay! Congratulations! She has all of the support from half the internet.
