It's official...I will be GRADUATING SATURDAY!!!!

I never thought this day would come.  I am graduating college on Saturday!  Oh me, oh my!  I can't believe it.   This has been a LONG, HARD road...and this is something NO ONE can ever take away from me.  There have been so many people who have stood behind me & made this possible for me to succeed. 

I really don't think the reality of it has set it.  I have been very excited today...but I don't think it will even compare to the excitement I will feel Saturday when I get officially pinned & walk the line at graduation.

My kids were so excited!  I don't think they believed that this is OVER!  Spencer asked me several times if that meant "NO more studying & NO more test".  It was funny.  Morgan jumped up & down for 20 minutes & hugged me over & over.

It felt really weird to come home & not to have to open a book.  I really didn't know what to do with myself.  I finally asked Spencer if he wanted to go to the park & play.  Morgan was at dance so we headed to the park & he got to play on the playground.

This week is going to be busy & hectic....but I will take it!  We have three days of NCLEX review course, HESI exit exam (retake), pinning practice, pinning & graduation still to come.  Then on Sunday Mom is having an graduation reception/open house for family & friends.

Thank you to EVERYONE for your thoughts, prayers, support & encouragement through this whole process.  I couldn't have done it without each & everyone of you.  I am a VERY BLESSED person!
