There has not been 1 day in the last 19 years that I have not been proud of my DS, but today has to be at the top of the list.
He called from school (11 hours away) to tell me that he received an e mail from our Congressman with a full offer of Appointment!
It came with a mixture of tears and smiles. As a mom we know how special our kids are, now we get to share them with the world!!!!
From California it does not get much further away, so it is certainly a bitter sweet moment. Seem like it all happened in the blink of an eye. We have taught our kids to be strong and independent, now I guess we have to let go and let them be.
CONGARTS a 100x's over to those with appointments, and want to again point out that this is my DS 2nd time around applying, so please do not give up!!! A year is nothing in the big picture, plus I think it makes them that much stronger!!
GO NAVY!!!!
Don't look back and ask why, Look ahead and ask why not? No regrets!!!!
