Big O’s Virtual 6th Grade Graduation & Car Parade

by Leave a Comment

It’s hard to believe it’s the end of the school year, we’ve been in 3 months of COVID-19 quarantine, and Big O (my Oldest) graduated elementary school. We celebrated with a virtual graduation ceremony, car parade, and socially distanced get together. When Big O was born everyone would tell me time goes by fast and it really does. Our relationship is changing as she grows and I’m figuring out in real-time how to be her mom, friend, mentor, ally. I’m so proud of the girl she is and look forward to the lady she will be.

The virtual graduation was perfect. The Principal, Superintendent, and Teachers congratulated and recorded best wishes for the kids. Even on the screen, I was emotional.
Each graduate was displayed with photos from when they were younger. I remember these photos like it was yesterday.
After the virtual ceremony there was a car parade at school.
Teachers handed out a graduation gift bag.
The Principal and teachers greeted and cheered each child in front of the school.
And each graduate took a photo with their mask.
And without their mask.
Big O said thank you and good-bye, and we drove away.

COVID-19 has effected all our lives and we will remember this time for the rest of our lives. I’m so grateful for all the teachers and parents involved in creating this special and memorable graduation for Big O.
