I did the same seven years ago.
I didn't care much for my high-school graduation ceremony, but this mattered to me. I brought tears to my mother's eyes as I went over and shook my own father's hand first(I only had six courses from him) before I went to Pres. Brushaber and accepted my degree.
Be blessed!

| Posted 5/24/2003 6:55 PM (GMT -6) | | Thanks guys. I had a great night. It was so fun. DLW, that is so cool about your graduation, I got a little just misty reading it. But I'm in the mood. It was so cool. Brushabar was lookin' mighty fancy. It was funny seeing everyone decked out. I'll have to do it again and get one of those fancy hoods.
Thanks again,

| Posted 5/28/2003 3:44 AM (GMT -6) | | Thanks for the congrats Ladies, and JC,
I worked really hard for this. I even got a little misty when I entered the auditorium for the ceremony. I'm not sure what's next. I got my degree in Organizational Leadership and have found that it is a perfect fit for me. However, I have become pretty skilled at counseling and of course I love philosophy and theology, so I'm sort of at a crossroads here. I'm going to pray about it and see where the Lord leads.
Thanks again,
Springs

I was rereading this thread and my comment about a degree in leadership, counselling, philosophy, and theology all adding up to make you a great housewife and mom.
Let me offer an apology from the bottom of my heart to you Springs, and to every woman who read my comments. My intent was not to insult or hurt you in any way. Nor did I wanna slam women, be chauvinistic, or suggest that your "place" in life was in the house. I really apologize, Srings, for coming accross as if this was my intent.
I actually was trying to be a bit humorous (which never seems to work with me), though what I wanted to say was that leadership, counselling, etc., were already yours in abundance as a wife and mom (and a friend and person!). YOU bring these gifts to your degree, you don't get them from your degree. I was trying to compliment you. But looking again at my comments, I guess I screwed up a chance to bless you.
Please forgive me Springs.
Tom 
Brandon, I'm not sure what you meant when you said you "agreed with me." I hope you still agree now that I made myself (hopefully) clear.

I thought it was a spin off from when we joked about women. Anyhow, I'm just gonna leave it alone. So please, don't nobody ask me about it.
Bottomline? Springs has done an outstanding job to get her bachelors. I'm going to light up a cigar in her honor.

| Posted 5/30/2003 3:43 PM (GMT -6) | | Whew, thanks so much for clarifying that Tom, I was a little confused. I have always found you to be so intelligent and graceful, that I couldn't imagine you being sexist, so I didn't know what you were trying to say. Thank you so much for the compliments and your desire to bless me. I sure appreciate you bro.
