what now?

Tomorrow is the scheduled Kindergarten Graduation. Everything is pretty much ready and I am feeling excited about the days events. I think that it has all come together well and should allow for a smooth transition of events tomorrow. Then...I got the news.

An elder has passed. And not just any elder, a prominent one in our community. I was really frightened that my graduation ceremony would be cancelled. Luckily, Mr. Simms made a gazillion calls on my behalf, and pulled some strings for me. The board of education up here has approved for the graduation to continue tomorrow so long as it is very low key and a quiet event. This makes me very happy. I've stressed about this long enough, I am ready to have this event.

The school is closed tomorrow. The children will come to the school just for the graduation ceremony. This will be the last day I see most of them till next year. I hope that it is a very memorable day for them and their parents. I also think that it will go off better than hoped because now I do not have to rely on the efforts of just Colinda, Vince and myself, but all of the staff will be (and have been requested to be by Mr. Sims) available to help for the event.

Also, this means that we will be allowed to leave earlier than expected from school. I can be home sooner now! Yaa! I'll let you know via my blog when we are allowed to leave. It looks like the 27th is our last day now instead of the 29th though.

Please pray for a smooth graduation ceremony tomorrow between 11am and 1pm. Thank-you!
