Graduation Speech
Joe Harrington was the first.
Starlin Castro was the most recent.
Will Clark was somewhere in the middle.
Any idea what list this is?
These are just three of the players who hit a homerun their first at bat during their MLB debut.
Our # 1 son accomplished the “toastmasters” equivalent last night – receiving a standing ovation for his first ever public speech.
The great thing about the standing O was that it was begun by people not directly connected or related to him.
Proud, proud, proud we are of his academic accomplishment, his well delivered and received speech (you should have seen the head nodding*) and most of all we are proud of his character and leadership.
*Greg would be familiar with head nodding while he speaks but it usually was indicative of speech induced comatic sleep.
The apple does not fall far from the tree Dr. Wray!
Talked to Jordan. He said it was great! Congrats to all.
