Congratulations, Master Nanna!


The sign coming in to Wagga says it all. Congratulations Graduates!

Mum (Mary / Nanna - whatever you'd like to call her) completed her Masters of Education (Librarianship) and graduated with her cohort on Wednesday 14th April. James, Lucy and I joined Mum and Dad for the day trip to Wagga to celebrate the finale to a bloody good effort!!!

Lucy soaked it all up. The sun that is... (Don't know that the red singlet matched the pink dress Jane...)

What else would a gowned up Nanna do but "look at 'dis" with her little grandson.


Here she is!



Shaking the vice-chancellors hand. He proceeded to hold Mum there for a good 30 seconds and ask her if she'd enjoyed her study with CSU... Doesn't sound like long but there were 270 graduating that day!

And back to reality after the lofty heights of the ceremony. Sitting on the steps having a cuppa and cake with your grandkids.

We're proud of you Mum. Makes your obsession with books a justifiable tax deduction ;)
