so proud...

Monday was a big day for my sweet hubby... The last night of his Bachelor's program. When we first met my parents threatened strongly encouraged him that any man worthy of dating their daughter would take getting an education seriously. And so it began... (i mean can you blame him... hello! it means he got to marry ME... just kidding people... please... calm down). We quickly realized however that his hopes of having a college degree were going to be put off by the fact that he didn't have a recognized high school diploma. so in the midst of working full-time at a restaurant, and part-time at a church he started plugging along at community college classes (they don't require a GED). Fast forward 4 1/2 years later and he finally gets to start his bachelors program. I have never seen someone tackle such an insurmountable task with such zeal and passion. (if you know my hubby you know how passionate he is about everything he does...)  He took on an incredibly difficult program in the midst of us both working full-time (him two jobs) and a new baby. Somehow through it all he was able to balance all of his spinning plates. Never did he let his home life suffer because of school work. It has been a long 6 year road but there are no words to describe the pride I feel in my husband for him accomplishing something people told him to quit a long time ago. 

I am proud to present my husband....
