Ta da!!! How fantastic is this. Hand loomed on the Island, at Laxey Woolen Mills and brought to us here. Splendid and right down to the fantastic shoes. He really did look amazing and I'm so pleased this is what he wanted to wear and in his own style with the sash. Brilliant
That smile says it all!
That's the back view.
Those are my boys
No one knew he would be wearing this outfit....
look at the reaction from one of his friends
That's a big hug
The rest of the class mates are mightily impressed
He smiled all day and Louie just quietly hung back and let him have his moment
Lots of getting ready in the Quaker meeting house for the class of 2016 to have their photo taken
There are some serious moments to this
But mostly just having a laugh. Because of the outfit, he got the center!
I couldn't believe how proud and happy he looked
Literally laughing his head off
Say cheese
Thumbs up from David means it's time to start the show
They parade in again
take their seats
and the ceremony begins
Isaac and Derek as always together
I've included this one, Andrew Stone a really special friend for Isaac and someone he has nurtured and encouraged for the last four years. We love Stone
All the graduating students get a small piece said about them and they also have an opportunity to say a few words. This was Derek after his intro music to Hail to the Chief...typical Derek!
So now it's Isaac's turn
Kirk the headmaster says some very nice things about him
And Isaac's speech was wonderful and without notes!
The boys meeting and greeting afterwards with some favorite teachers
Isaac and Glenn....someone Isaac has spent many hours with doing the robot
I love this one...so smiley and in the moment
This has got to be the best, relaxed and fantastic pictures ever!
Hugs again with Sam and Andrew Stone
This teacher truly is the best ever and lovely Andrew Stone!
How sweet is this
This is my most favorite picture. That smile is from the heart and is lovely to see
And this is how the house looked today! Pretty cool!
I hope that you enjoyed this Graduation Special. We are proud and loving the moment for Isaac....he now can just get on with what he wants to do and that is be the incredible writer he is! Love to you all. I want to thank Sam, for just everything he does, for Isaac, for all the kids. He is an amazing teacher and we are so lucky to have him at our school. What he has done for Isaac is life altering and just so wonderful. I just don't have enough words. For Tim, for helping Isaac hone that skill of writing in essay form and giving him the help to tap into that awesome skill and ability that was just waiting there all along to come out. This school has changed all our lives and I am so pleased that Isaac was able to attend there. Even though it was hard. It has been the most incredible foundation to spring from....so watch this space for Isaac B Fozard....I can't wait to see what happens next.
Wow! What a treat to see Isaac so proud and happy! He looked amazing and I am sure everyone else thought so, too. Miranda, you are so wonderful to take the time to produce such a memorable depiction of his graduation. It was spectacular! !
