Zia is visiting (she moved out with Clara) and has lost all shame.
Not the worst way to end an afternoon....
1. Colin receives his degree and wins an award for his history thesis. 2. Colin receives the Sword of Honour from General Vance, the Chief of Defense Staff, given to the top cadet of the promotion. 3. Colin received his commission from Governor General Julie Payette. 4. The GG waves at my other kids. 5. The pipes and drums lead the class of 2019 to the Arch. 6. Colin leads the class of 2019 through the Arch. 7. Colin received his first salute from his sister Éloïse (sadly Clara could not be here). 8. Colin opens the bottle of champagne with the family sword. It was a good day.
I caught Colin after he marched through the arch and we had a good cry. I’m just so proud of all my children. That’s something that most people don’t realize when they say “I don’t know how you do it, this must be so hard”: the joys are in proportion of the challenges. The journey of having 9 children spread out over 18 years is a challenging one. But man, does the payoff make up for it. #justsayin #famjam🍓
