Seminary Graduation and family time








I can tell this is going to be a long week for me. Every time I think about Jessica graduating, I get choked up and teary. Yesterday was the first event in a long week of events coming up. Jessica graduated from seminary. We had Jamie's family come into town because Sage is graduating too. After church we had a family open house where we had food and let people come and congratulate the girls. It was really nice to see everyone. Then we went to the Graduation. Steve was presiding over the service and was able to speak at the end. He did such a nice job, the spirit was so strong. I had so many people come up to me who were really touched. I really am struggling with the fact that my daughter is an adult. I need to remember to drink plenty of liquids, because I have a leak in my eyes... I should get that checked. Anyway, I'm so proud of Jessica, she's worked so hard, and is such a good girl. I think she'll do amazing things in the future. She's planning to go to USU in the middle of June and find a job, then start classes in the fall. I really think this will be a neat experience for her, but my house will be so quiet without her here all the time.
