I don't know why yet

But finding out that there may be an issue with my sister and nephews attending my graduation is disheartening. Mom wasn't able to go into detail because my sister was in the room. I guess I'll find out for sure what's going on later. I'm unfortunately used to hearing otherwise bad news when it comes to my sister, so I'm not really having much of an emotional response to it, but this really does suck ass if they are not going to be able to go.

If nothing else, I really would like for the boys to see that there are positive things that can happen in the world. The youngest one might not remember it, but I know the oldest one is old enough that it will make a lasting impression on him. If there were two boys in the world that needed a little bit of positive in their lives it's them. For all I know they will still be able to attend and this semi-rant is for naught. Either way, even just the prospect of them not attending yanks a little too deep inside.
