So, this is it for Jack. Four years of Siegfried friends, North Dining Hall meals, tailgating at football games, and, of course, magna cum laude grades in Mechanical Engineering, and Jack's time as a resident of Notre Dame will be coming to a close this Sunday. I am thrilled for him. His four years at Notre Dame have really been for him all that I could have ever wanted for a child. An amazing school, with a great academic program, lots of fun, and, for him, a job at the end of the road, which he starts in August. What more could a parent want?
And so today, we all hit the road....all of us, even though some of us are missing big rowing races here, and I will be spending the majority of the weekend in a wheelchair because after 4 weeks from a double knee replacement, I really can't walk more than a few hundred feet. I am amazed at the number of people who have told me that I should stay home... because a college graduation really trumps all of the above, and there is no way I am going to miss seeing Jack graduate from Notre Dame on Sunday!!
