Hope Wears a White Coat

The stage was empty, but every parent's heart was full.

(Just look at Dave's face.)

There was a fairly long line of speakers, but not a bore in the bunch.

Each one was both entertaining and inspirational. (thank heaven)

Then it was time for the white coat ceremony itself!

Todd ended up to be the last one in line, which was kinda cool.

Here he is, walking across the stage, coat in hand.

The big moment arrives. He slips his arms into each sleeve.

Looks pretty good in that thing, doesn't he?

Next, "The MED-leys" sang a funny pop song with original lyrics.

Okay boys and girls, time to stand up and recite the oath.

Todd's the one on the last row, with two people to his left.

We only got 6 tickets, and these were the lucky ticket holders.

Grandma, of course, only had eyes for Todd.

And Dad was walking on air.

In fact, we all were.

Todd most of all.

It was the very best of evenings. One we will never forget.
