Proud Mamma Brag
My baby graduates from college tomorrow
I can hardly believe that she's old enough for that but she is. Her grades have been really great for the duration and we're very proud of her. She'll go on to a 1 yr. intensive, post grad. RN program. We're off to drive the 3 hours it will take to get to her college town. Ds will come in this evening and we'll all be there for her big day. I just can't wait.
