one of my favorite sights today at graduation was a very tiny young boy running away with his father's gown. 4 or 5 years old, if even that. his dad is a civil engineer student, so instead of a square cap, they got hard hats, and this little boy had it on. he had his dad's gown in his hand, tossed over his shoulder, running across the lawn with no clear intention on where he was going, he just knew to run. his father, nicely dressed in a dark red suit with a pale grey tie and shiny beige-red shoes, running after him in the lawn. his gown was getting so much dirt all over him. the little boy was laughing so hard the entire time. the dad scooped him up like he was today's mail.
