Hannah’s Grad – Recognition – Thing – … !
First of all – Congratulations, Hannah, upon your completion of high school! We’re so proud of you, and all your hard work – you are AMAZING!
Yes, that’s right, Hannah has completed Grade 12. She also won an award for Math, and another for Art! Great job, Hannah!
Now, back in the “old days”, we were thinking that we would be eating our way through a grad banquet, and sitting through a grad ceremony, this week. As I’m sure you all know, everyone’s plans have changed rather drastically since those “old days”, and we have discovered that God had completely different plans!
So, we’re in Mexico, Hannah has been out of the dorm since March, and – banquet and grad ceremonies? Who knows (besides God)? Those things may still happen in the fall – or not – and if they do, we may be there – or not. Did that cover all the bases?
All that being said, this week has not been without celebration. Tonight, Lord willing, the grads will still have a party. And yesterday, there was some kind of grad recognition – thingme – something – thanks to the good folks from Prairie Christian Academy!
Hannah was at Shari’s parents’ house (which is not far from the school). Honking was heard – honking like you rarely hear in Canada (unless there’s a wedding going on) (and there wasn’t). And turning onto the street was a caravan of vehicles. The faculty had put together the “PCA Grad Parade” of 2020, with balloons and waves and smiles (and, as previously mentioned, a lot of noise!).
A banner with Hannah’s picture and the class verse (Psalm 62:2) was deposited on the lawn. Hannah received a cap and gown, and had her picture taken with the principal, Darryl Hern.

So congratulations again, Hannah! And hopefully the celebrations will continue – maybe even into the fall – actually, who care what happens? We can celebrate as long as we want, wherever we want. So there.
