Today is a day for celebration. Heidi graduated from SCSU today with her degree in Social Work. No telling where she'll go from here, but I know that whatever she puts her mind to, she'll do well at. She has so many aspirations, and I hope that she knows that I will support her as she chases her dreams.
It's raining today, but that's OK, it could not dampen our spirits as we headed up to St. Cloud for the commencement ceremony. Heidi, Her mom and Dad, and our niece Abbi went to the ceremony, and listened to the speeches and then over 1000 names of graduates receiving their diplomas.
Hearing Heidi's name read off was so fun. Her eyes lit up and she walked up the stairs onto the stage to shake hands with the President of the University. Her smile was beaming. She looked great in her cap and gown, and I know she's happy that she is finished with this particular journey. Perhaps she'll continue on with school, peraps she'll work, perhaps she'll take a break, but that's all up to her.
Congratulations, Heidi!
