This Week

Saturday, my firstborn graduates from college.

big huge sigh. . . .

Without his permission, I won't divulge too much private info, but let's just say it's been a while coming.

He changed majors 3 times, maybe 4. He changed schools 3 or 4 times. Moved from the Woods to San Antonio, back to the Woods, and then to Ohio with us. You could say he took the scenic route. But he never gave up. And we never gave up on him. So, no, he didn't finish early, like his brother. He didn't finish in 4 years like a lot of kids. But he DID finish, unlike a lot of kids.

I'm very proud of him, for hanging in there and not giving up.

And he's not taking any time off; he's going straight into a Master's program.

Lots of changes 'round the corner for both of us. . . .

So, here's to him. (imagine me raising a glass of expensive champagne)
