Eric finished school just a couple of weeks ago. He had been doing a fast track program to achieve his bachelors degree. We are EXTREMELY proud of him! It has been a difficult road for him with working full time and attending classes three, sometimes FOUR nights per week, not to mention my pre-term labor and Hailey’s illness last April. He managed to make the president’s honors list EACH quarter.

We threw a surprise graduation party for him at his sister’s house in the city (thanks again, Em!). This was the second time that Hailey was at her Auntie Em’s house. Last time, she wasn’t even walking yet. She was a bit fussy, due to teething but overall had a really good time entertaining her aunts and uncles and grandparents. It was a VERY late night for that little girl but she handled it quite well, I must say.

So, a big congratulations goes out to Hailey’s daddy. Way to go, honey, we love you!
