I've been tagged!

Here's the 4th picture in my 4th folder...This was taken the morning I graduated with my Master's degree. Nathan was just about three months old then. I had to take him with me to line up for commencement exercies until my parents could get there and watch him for me. I can't remember where Larry was, that he couldn't take Nate? My Dad snapped this picture of me as I was coming down to meet him and give him Nate that morning. I look back now and I don't know how in the world I finished those last few months of school with a newborn. He became a college student at an early age because he went everywhere with me....class, study groups, etc. I'm really glad I did though! and glad it was only a few months! I remember being a zombie alot because Nate cried so much in the nights and also missing homework assignments, which I never did before. I learned that grades weren't the most important thing to worry about that's for sure! I also remember my friend Emily telling me that morning that my new "scent" was baby lotion, hahaha!

I don't know how you did it either! While we were in school I remember thinking how awesome you were for having a baby in the middle of our master's program, but now that I am a mom myself, I am in AWE at how tough you really are to have handled all that you did. I know I couldn't have done it!

Yes, I agree with Staci. You are amazing! And I do specifically remember you always smelling like baby lotion when you came to class :)
