Virtual baby showers, graduations, weddings and birthday parties became a staple during the pandemic. We had to transition and change celebrations in a way that we never imagined. While some folks thought it was best to postpone or cancel, it can be best to celebrate regardless.

A friend of mine sent me the link to her virtual college graduation. She had worked long and hard to obtain this degree and I was so upset for her that she did not get her day to walk across the stage and claim her reward for sticking with it. Of course, I clicked the link and sat in my living room- ready to screenshot and cheer my friend on. And it started me down the path think about celebration and why it is so important to still celebrate in the mist of all that's going on.
