We (me, G-Daddy, Tabitha, and Grandpa) attended the final graduation ceremony for Doc T. She’s finally done with her residency program and is stepping out into the real world. I’m the mother of a doctor now, which means that I can back up my internet degree in medicine with real medical advice. She can’t write us prescriptions, there’s some kind of medical code of honor that forbids that, but all the members of her family can feel free to wake her up at 2:00 am to ask about a strange looking mole that may have turned cancerous sometime during the night. I’m so proud of her. I remember when Doc T. was just a sassy little girl, the sassiness started around birth, and now she’s all grown up. I guess that sassiness will serve her well when she’s brow beating someone into getting a colonoscopy.
Big boy Natey tried to keep his Aunt quiet during the graduation, telling her, “Be quiet, Tabifa.” Tabitha entertained the people around us by holding my cell phone to her ear and saying, “Hewwo? Yes, yes.” Both kids were pretty patient with the whole affair and baby Nick expressed his excitement by sleeping through most of it.
