Jill's Graduation

Last Sunday was my sister Jill's law school graduation from The John Marshall Law School.  It was the 4th graduation of Jill's that I have attended.  First there was her 8th grade graduation (I don't totally remember it), then high school (great outdoor ceremony!), then college (the hottest graduation of them all!), and now law school (the most comfortable seating).  I am so very proud of the beautiful, smart, funny, wonderful person she has become.  Apparently the stories I told her (with Alyse's help) about being adopted and from Jamaica or convincing her when she was young that she had a rare tropical disease haven't affected her success.  Thank goodness for that!

Here are some pictures of Jill growing up and at some of her other graduations.

Jill in the musical "Annie"  She was in 5th or 6th grade I think.  I had just turned 16 and had the pleasure of driving her to practice every night and waiting there until practice was over.
