Sloan's Graduation

This was not Sloan's best day for some reason. Her usual, cheerful disposition was nowhere to be found graduation day and although I had been forced to listen to La Bamba countless times in the days leading up to it, she refused to sing on the stage with her classmates. And when she received her "diploma" and we all clapped for her she fussed at the crowd. Fortunately, this was a rare show of temper because she won the Principal's Award for her class. I'm sure most of the parents were wondering how much we paid the principal for it.
