CONGRATULATIONS MATTHEW!

We had the pleasure to celebrate my son Matthew's Class of 2009 Graduation yesterday. High school is over and a new chapter in his life begins. The celebration was held at the Queen Elizabeth Hotel in Montreal. 308 graduates and 1500 guests were in attendance. We were very proud to learn that Matthew finished his last year with an overall 80% average. He was honoured with an Award of Distinction.

We were very fortunate, and I am sure it meant so much to Matthew, to have with us my Grandmother - Matthew's Great Grandmother. This lady is amazing. She is 96 years old and wouldn't have missed this day.

I lived with my Grandparents when I was young. They attended my graduation. My Grandmother has attended both of my sons' graduation. This has meant so much to us all. We love you Nanny.

Our Aunt Dorothy also attended and Aunt Grace and Uncle Karol sent Matthew their best wishes as they live out of town. Thank you so much.

These are moments which are so special and will not be forgotten.

Here are pictures of the big day and of the card I made for him.
