From all of us at Auburn-Opelika Moms Blog, we are proud of your accomplishments and honored to celebrate you! We admire your determination, strength, talents, and the resilience you have shown in your achievement. Congratulations to the graduating class of 2020.
To Our Seniors
In the time of 9/11
into this world you came.
Two very important reasons why
our lives are now not the same.
Off to school you went at five
and your friendship circles grew.
These friends became like family
and were with you through and through.
Now here you are as seniors
and the world is upside down.
Some of you are wondering if
you’ll wear your cap and gown.
We know it’s all uncertain
as you navigate this part.
Just know without uncertanity
that you’re loved with all our hearts.
