Finn’s Cottage Graduation

Well, today was the day — our very last day at Cottage. We weathered the emotions pretty well; I didn’t break down until the very end.

First, there was the potluck. Finn and Bruce played rock, paper, scissors instead of eating.

A little later, everyone gathered around and the graduation ceremony began. First of the three amigos to get called up was Kai.

And finally Finn. He got his certificate and folder from Sahar.

After the commotion, I managed to get a picture with Finn and all of the teachers.
