It's a Fine Day Today!

Congratulations, Burd! It was a really big day for you! You successfully presented and defended your thesis! I heard about it from Holly, and she should know, because she was there for your presentation! It's the final countdown before you are awarded your master's degree! I am so extremely proud of you! I know that this was many months in the making and a lot of really hard work!

A week or so ago, I got a big envelope in the mail with Holly Barker's name on the front. It was her official bachelor's degree! Congratulations to Holly! I'm so proud of you, for completing your degree! Last May, we watched you in the graduation ceremony at Utah State. AND, I believe you were a newly engaged girl, wearing the ring Burd gave you for just the second day!

So, today, on this fine day, when I congratulate Burd for doing so well defending his thesis, I also look back at your graduation ceremony. I'm so proud of both of you!
