Well, congratulations to the both of you Stormy and labrown. You should be proud of yourselves. I totally know how you feel though. I didn't even go to my ceremony 'cause no one was coming in my family. My high school graduation, my grandmother died so my mother didn't go to that either. (She was in another country and I never met her).
But, at least I have all that behind me and I was proud of myself for getting myself thru school, that was what was important!:
