Our daughter is graduating today from community college
and transferring to a university in the fall to work on her BA.
We’re so excited for this new chapter in her life
and so very proud of her hard work.
She especially didn’t let some daunting speed bumps stop her
or even slow her down to reaching this goal.
Her dedication and perseverance inspires everyone
who knows her…
Moving forward…♥

Thanks so much, Chris, and I’m not sure if my first reply went through (oh, the woes of tech problems)…anyway, your words mean a lot and I appreciate them! HBL to you, too! ♥
Congratulations to your daughter Lauren, I only have a few weeks to go until I finish my course at university but I don’t graduate until December. I am sure your daughter will go a long way and I hope university brings her some wonderful adventures 🙂
Thanks, Bianca, and congratulations to you, too, for your wonderful accomplishments! Your graduation will be here before you know it and that is so exciting! I appreciate your wishes for her and will pass them along. 🙂
Congrats again- we’ll celebrate in person in a few weeks! Grandpa
Thanks, Dad, and can’t wait to see you! Love ya! xoxoxo
Yay – congratulations! It must be so nice to watch her grow and discover these new adventures. Love the poem too.
Aww…thanks, Sheila, and yes, it has been fun watching her grow into the responsible, beautiful young adult she is and we hope the new adventures are positive also. I’m glad you liked the haiku, too! 🙂 Many hugs!
Love the Haiku, Lauren – and huge congratulations to your daughter on her graduation! Sending love and hugs to you, my friend ~ Julie xoxox

Congrats on all the blessings and success in your daughter’s, and your, life. The young can be such a source of inspiration and challenge to their elders. God bless your holiday weekend–love, sis Caddo
Thanks so much, Caddo, she is truly an inspiration and we had a great celebration last night! Be safe this weekend, too, and have a wonderful one! Hugs and blessings…
We are so proud of Steph. She has worked hard these past 3 years and now has a double major to prove it. Steph, you are a beautiful girl, inside and out!!! Love you.
Thanks, Susie, I’ll convey your loving comment to her! We had fun last night and it was “happily” emotional, as well! xoxo
Oh boy do I know what you’re talking about! Huge congratulations to your accomplished daughter on her new adventure, and to you two, too! 😀
I smiled when I read your first sentence, Kathryn, and it’s all worth it, isn’t it? 🙂 Thanks so much for your congratulation wishes! Hugs!
Hi Lauren,
congratulations! So true! Studying children always need money! 🙂
Thanks so much, Ina, and yes, we donate to the college jar often, which feels more like a bucket! 🙂 But, it’s very worth it and she has worked very hard to move on like she will be doing…and our son is starting this fall, as well, graduating in 2 weeks from high school. 🙂
Heartfelt congratulations to your daughter! An especially wonderful accomplishment considering what might’ve thrown her off her path. You must be very proud of her! XO ♥
Thanks so much, Diane, for your loving comment and your insight is one of the many reasons we are so proud of her…she could have given up and instead, she persevered, which is a big lesson for her family and friends. Many hugs to you! xo ♥
loved the “take my checkbook” comment Susie
Thanks, Susie, and for taking the time to visit here! xo
