This past Saturday, my oldest niece graduated from college. She started out years ago as an elementary education major. After a couple of years and some student teaching courses, she realized that she really didn't much care for children, or their parents. A major change was in order. She took a few months off and came to live with me out in Tulsa. I got to buy her first legal drink when she turned twenty-one. She got a job at Lowe's and had a big circle of new friends. We had a blast while she lived in Tulsa with me. She returned to Indiana with determination. She started taking classes at a community college at night while she supported herself working during the day. It only took her 11 years, but she finally got 'er done! She now has a B.S. degree in Business Management.
I'm so proud of you, E. You rock, my little graduate!
Thanks G! It feels good.
I'm so glad you came and shared my big day with me.
Erikah, BSM
