Today Whitney will graduate with a Masters degree and Carlie will graduate with a Bachelor's degree. Those are some good degrees. There's much left to do in each of their lives, but there are no more papers to write, no more Math or Science to learn, and no more tests to take. So what's next? Not exactly sure but it's gonna be great. Carlie says there are 757 people graduating today so that means there are 757 different stories and hopes and dreams and expectations of what life will be like. It can be very unsettling to have no idea what the future holds, but as a college graduate, it's really more exciting than anything. What job to take? Where to move? But I want to stay close to family. It's all part of the process of growing up. And great decisions as well as mistakes will be made, but, again it's part of the process. Thank goodness God doesn't have a big scorecard up in heaven to check off when we make either. It's not about that. It's about trusting Him with your whole heart all the days of your life and knowing He wants nothing but the greatest and best for each of us. There will be romances and marriages and children and jobs and houses and vacations and all those things add up to many lovely memories made over a lifetime.
Enjoy it girls.
It goes by fast.
And congratulations to Courtney as well who also will be receiving her Masters degree but Miss Smarty Pants will be going on for a PhD as well........jealous!!!!

Not gonna lie...part of the reason for PhD is to wear one of those FABULOUS velvet hats :) But don't tell anyone b/c they will think I don't value education...
