The end finally came, I finished my Masters degree and graduated for my second time from the University of Utah.
This time I hope it feels more final. Last year after I graduated with my Bachelors degree I returned to school to begin my Masters only two weeks later. This time I’m not planning on going to back to school, at least not for a while. Joe knew how hard this last year was for me and made a medal to commemorate my efforts.
I was excited to have lots of family at my College’s convocation. I even got my sister, my niece and nephew, and one of my brothers all of whom had to travel quite a distance to be there. I know there were other people who wanted be there but couldn’t, I felt of your support too.
I don’t know what I would have done with out such a loving and supportive husband.
It was a great day. It was especially great to gather after the convocation with many of the 20+ people from my domain who I spent so much time with this past year.
Later that day even more friends and family gathered for more celebration. I was especially grateful to some of my good friends from high school who traveled about an hour to be there. They stayed the entire length of the party and helped put everything away when it was over.
Thank you to all the friends and family who have supported me in my education and helped celebrate with me this last weekend. I couldn’t have done it without you!
Yay! It was great to be there.
I’m glad you were able to make it, complicated travel plans and all 🙂
