The ending that starts it all.

I graduate from college on Saturday. The same college my dad went to for grad school. I really wish my dad could be here for this. When he died 2 years ago I kept saying he'd finished raising me, and I knew I wouldn't need him for advice in my everyday life, but he wouldn't be there for the pictures - Christmases, birthdays, graduations, weddings, babies.... this is one of those pictures I really would've loved him to be there for.
