That's My Boy!

I hinted at a special occasion on Monday, and yes it was, very special.  Yesterday our son graduated from Oxford Brookes University with a First Class Honours degree in Mathematics. Our daughter joined us from Bradford for the day and we watched the proceedings from our privileged position in reserved seats on the front row, as he not only received his degree, but also a prize for Individual Achievement and gave the Graduate Speech at the end.

All his hard work and study, along with quite a bit of fun and games, well rewarded.  Well done J. We’re so proud of all your achievements, the person you have become, and to be your Mum and Dad.
