Proud Papa

[Stacy E. Apelt - Bladesmith]

I just left my daughters nursing School graduation. She received an honor for having the highest GPA in the class. There were 63 in the beginning, and 13 graduates. Several said that Tina was the one who got them through the tough places.

The look on your face seems to say, "Boy am I ever in trouble if she finds out what I do when I jamb a mini-sword through my thumb!"

Congrats.

Congratulations to the graduate. And congratulations to you. As I see it, to some extent this is a measure of the quality of your parenting. You've raised a child that will give more to the world than they take. No minor accomplishment. You're good people.

How proud are you?:thumbup:

Not only did you prepare your child for success, but in so doing you gave her the tools to assist others on their journey as well.

As I'm slap dab in the middle of raising a 16 year old, I can confidently ask the rhetorical question of "Isn't that what's it's all about?" Sounds like you knocked that one out of the park.

Congrats to the proud Papa and the new graduate. Best wishes to you both for your continued success!

Most sincerely,

Taylor
