Transition



Here's Hannah the Yogi demonstrating a "College to Real World Transition Position". Yes, I know, it looks sorta lonely and sad here, but it's the space in between one place and another. She's graduated! That's cause for celebration and we did our best to pull some of that off at the Tornado Lounge the night of May 17th, but not before surviving the commencement ceremony (Q:is there anyone in the world who can pull off an inspirational commencement speech?), cramming down lunch at Hawk's on State Street and then all seven of us moving her out of the Mifflin Street studio apartment in three hours.



But look...she's earned a bona fide bachelor's degree, something neither her dad nor I can brag about for ourselves. Instead, we just get to be proud of her! The work she's produced over the last four years @ UW Madison is impressive, to say the least.

Meanwhile, motherhood is all about storage spaces, from the womb to the basement, where Hannah's possessions are piled in boxes and bags for, uh...awhile. She'll complete an internship @ Knock, Inc. in Minneapolis over the summer. In the fall, she moves to NYC and I have a hunch she's going to give the world of advertising a kick in the pants.

CONGRATULATIONS HANNAH! We love you and are already blissfully blinded by your bright future!

Congratulations to ALL of you! I love the way you write with such humor and compassion. But I did feel a pang looking at that transitional photo...
