    Proud doesn't begin to describe how I feel, more like relieved that she actually wants to make a difference in the world. She has plans to become a Pediatrician. And, thank you for your kind sentiments.

    That's awesome! Med school is extremely competitive! That is great! Let me know if she needs any help. I think I have some text books, anatomy books, etc. laying around!!!

    The empty nest will have to wait A while longer, Delan is contemplating on furthering his education. Needless to say I'm all for it.

    I wish I were in your shoes.
    I can't seem to get rid of my kids.
    Congrats on their accomplishments. You should be very proud.
