Closing ceremonies


NO more classes....today was Philip's final class of his entire Divinity career. It's always been a day to celebrate in our home. This time it feels a little surreal. Can graduate school really be coming to an end. It truly feels like yesterday when I wrote this post about the beginning of the end. Well the end is here. We celebrated this time as a family by joining Philip at his final Chapel service. Every year for this service, they give the seniors a cross and a blessing.
Today's ceremony was a bit more sophisticated so we opted not to attend. All the professors were at this one all decked out. It was held in Duke Chapel which means baby noises are majorly amplified!
