Please pardon the shout out, but this is something to shout about. Kent graduated today with his Master's degree in Business. I am trying not to dote on him too much, but I can't help it. I am so proud.
I cannot describe how grateful I am to have such a wonderful husband. I know that all knowledge and light comes from my Heavenly Father. And the knowledge and education Kent gained at this school has, as he put it "changed the way I look at the world." The Lord has such a soft way of directing our thoughts to where they need to be.
While going through this program, there was alot of long hours, heartache, papers, tears, gratitude, words, laughter (how crazy can life actually get?), and tender mercies. It was a bumpy ride sometimes, but our motto became "Enjoy the Journey." We knew there had to be a way to enjoy the bumps on the road or the scenery along the trail, without constantly focusing on the next trailmarker (when will we be done?!!). That was our secret to making it through this, enjoying the perfect scenery along the road.
Kenty, my love, you are a truly amazing man. I love your fair-minded kindness, your liberal trains of thoughts, your quiet ways, your perfect smile, your unassuming friendly manner to all regardless of circumstance, and your sincere patient parenting. I know you will go far in whatever occupation you choose, because of your purity of heart, endless enthusiasm and relationship with the Lord. I love you dearly, my love, for eternity. Congratulations!
