I’m feeling pretty weepy this morning…and I’m not even pms-ing. Today I’m going to one of my very dearest friend’s college graduation. Working a full-time job that requires travel and with two kids both still in elementary school, she went back to school and is graduating today, magna cum laude, with a business degree. And she’s still managed to be involved with her kids and a great mom–she’s insane enough that she was in charge of the cookie distribution for her daughter’s girl scout troop this year. I am so incredibly proud of her and what she’s accomplished it brings me to tears.
Forget movie stars and pop divas, we need to look in our own back yards to find true role models for our children and ourselves.
Ellen Marie Gallagher, I applaud you.
That’s so great. Good for her! And good on you for being such a good friend to her.
:)
