S graduated from Duke on Sunday. It was a fun and exciting weekend even with the rain! He had an amazing four years and made some wonderful friends. We were surprised to see how he has grown in four years and happy to see how mature he has become.
S will be taking another journey that will give us lots more grey hair. He will be commissioned as an officer in the army on July 4 after spending time in Seattle at a leadership training course, and then he'll head off to officer training. We too, have reservations, but like brigid said, it is indeed his life and he plans to experience it to the fullest. He wants to serve and then go to graduate school.
This is a totally unexpected path, but he is excited and proud....
H& I are scared to death!
brigid, maybe our S and your nephew will cross paths. Good luck!
I hope we can find comfort with some more virtual friends and advisors for the next four years.
And we thought college was tough..
