My dear friend, Andrea Hollingsworth, was honored at the Villanova University College of Nursing Alumni Awards yesterday. When she called me a couple of months ago to let me know she would be receiving the prestigious College of Nursing Medallion, I immediately contacted my old choir director, Don, and asked to sit in with the choir. Two weeks ago, when I spoke to him to confirm my participation, he said "Oh yeah, I have you cantoring; you're already printed in the program!" Oh, good, no pressure or anything...
And good thing I came down with bronchitis earlier in the week and couldn't hit anything above a G...
It went relatively well, and it was an honor to be a small part of Andie's special day. Maggie got to go to church for the first time, and was very good the whole time. She even rubbed elbows with the University muckety mucks at the reception afterwards and was, as usual, the light of the party!
Here's Maggie in the front yard yesterday morning. I don't think she liked the feeling of grass on her face; she looked like she was trying to swim:
Maggie's hair looked so red in the sunshine:
Later that night, here's me singing at the Alumni Awards:
Don let Maggie play on the organ after the Awards Ceremony. I think music runs in the family!:
Thanks for the lesson, Don!:
We'll show her these pictures when she graduates from Juliard:

All the flowers were in bloom all over campus, it was a perfect day!:
