Aidan小同学穿着长袍，带着方帽 --- 从学前班 --- 毕业了。老妈心中欢喜却也略有不平 --- 我老人家可是辛辛苦苦念到大学毕业才穿上长袍，又寒窗了五年才被点名上台领证书的。还是人家老师会安慰人，对不起，你生的太早了。
好吧，不知道小朋友们在毕业典礼上能体会多少“成就感”，但那兴奋劲儿是显而易见的。头天晚上床上床下折腾了n遍，都十一点了又从卧室里摸出来，说妈妈我还是睡不着。最后终于睡着了不到八个钟头，第二天又大清早爬起来，一路小跑过来，一骨碌爬到半梦半醒的老爸老妈身上叫着“Graduation! Graduation!”
可是老妈我为什么这么激动呢？最后当老师宣布“Now we are proud to present the Class of 2011…”老妈的鼻子竟莫名地酸了，眼泪都差一点掉下来J

America the Beautiful
(lyrics by Katherine Lee Bates; music composed by Samuel A. Ward)
O beautiful for spacious skies,
For amber waves of grain,
For purple mountain majesties
Above the fruited plain!
America! America!
God shed His grace on thee,
And crown thy good with brotherhood
From sea to shining sea!
For amber waves of grain,
For purple mountain majesties
Above the fruited plain!
America! America!
God shed His grace on thee,
And crown thy good with brotherhood
From sea to shining sea!
O beautiful for pilgrim feet
Whose stern impassion'd stress
A thoroughfare for freedom beat
Across the wilderness.
America! America!
God mend thine ev'ry flaw,
Confirm thy soul in self-control,
Thy liberty in law.
O beautiful for heroes prov'd
In liberating strife,
Who more than self their country loved,
And mercy more than life.
America! America!
May God thy gold refine
Till all success be nobleness,
And ev'ry gain divine.
O beautiful for patriot dream
That sees beyond the years
Thine alabaster cities gleam
Undimmed by human tears.
America! America!
God shed His grace on thee,
And crown thy good with brotherhood
From sea to shining sea.
Whose stern impassion'd stress
A thoroughfare for freedom beat
Across the wilderness.
America! America!
God mend thine ev'ry flaw,
Confirm thy soul in self-control,
Thy liberty in law.
O beautiful for heroes prov'd
In liberating strife,
Who more than self their country loved,
And mercy more than life.
America! America!
May God thy gold refine
Till all success be nobleness,
And ev'ry gain divine.
O beautiful for patriot dream
That sees beyond the years
Thine alabaster cities gleam
Undimmed by human tears.
America! America!
God shed His grace on thee,
And crown thy good with brotherhood
From sea to shining sea.
