This is the picture I captured as the Boyfriend exited the stage after "receiving" his diploma from Yale Law School. He didn't technically graduate until yesterday, after his grades were in for the final semester.
The ceremony was in the courtyard of the law school. The courtyard was sunny and packed by the time I arrived with the Boyfriend's parents; people camped out for spots, skipping the university wide commencement that preceded the individual graduations. I felt silly for not having thought of reserving chairs for us with blue and white tulle as one family had done. A beach chair would have been nice also.
This picture was only possible because I maneuvered my way through the outskirts of the crowd and told someone else who was waiting to take an off-stage snapshot that "Mine is next!". They politely stood aside, and I called out the Boyfriend's name. He turned and smiled.
He IS mine.
Oh yeah, and some famous Yale Law graduate was there. I don't know if you've heard of her: Hillary Clinton. I would like to state this is the second time I have stood in a large open area with Madam Secretary.
The rest of the pictures of the graduation weekend, including the only one I managed to take on Sunday when Sarah visited, are here.
