“When asked about not being able to attend the commencement on campus, Sayles responded that the һoѕріtаɩ event was ‘way better.’ She explained that having her son, Easton, in her arms made it a truly memorable experience and the best academic moment of her life. Playfully, Sayles mentioned to Fox News Digital that her son should have some ‘great Mother’s Day’ presents for her, considering the ᴜпіqᴜe circumstances surrounding his birth just hours after she received her college degree. As Easton grows older, Sayles plans to share the story of his birth with him. Describing Easton as a sweet baby who spends most of his time napping and enjoys being close to his mother, Sayles envisions enrolling in law school and pursuing a career in public policy for her future plans.”
