Congrats and best of everything to y'all!
Well congrats to YOU for a job well done!

My son kept a 4.0 GPA throughout high school and that was a true testament. I thought watching him walk across the stage and getting his diploma made me proud...

Then this. He will have it tough, it is going to be hard for him because his dad is going to be discouraging him. I will be there for him and lifting him up in prayer...

Alexander will be only the second of very many grandchildren to go to college. One of my brothers sons went for a short period but then began a family.

He could have gone very far. I am proud of my nephew for the wonderful father and husband that he is....

I wish my parents could be here, I know they would be sooo proud of him!!!
