I'm so proud of Mark, and I know many of you don't know him-just through me and what I've shared about him. But he has made a few posts here and there on this forum. And as a proud wife, I just couldn't resist in sharing.
He will be graduating from Washington State University this Saturday and I am so proud of him. I think it's always amazing and special when a CFer graduates college, has kids, gets a promotion... and I am so darn proud of him. He's done it all while getting married, having me join the Navy, moving to San Diego, moving back to Washington, this pregnancy (especially what started out as a fiasco) and a number of other minor but affecting things.
I'm also so proud of him because he's the first person in 2 generations to graduate college, on his mom and dad's side of the family!! His grandfather on his moms side was the last person to graduate. Mark's dad didn't even go to high school. And his brother dropped out of high school so he's really beat the odds for his family history. School was never really pushed in his family, save for his grandfather.
So, just wanted to share how proud I am of him!!!
Jen, aren't you graduating soon too? When's that date?
