My son graduated from college today. So I send another child out into this world of uncertainty. I couldn't be prouder of him. He made the deans list almost every semester. He starts next month in the master's program.
My daughter graduated almost 7 years ago and she also has her masters degree.
If I died tomorrow I would die happy knowing my kids are the future.
I'm beyond beaming with pride tonight. I wanted to share with you guys.
