Application for Graduation

 Hanging on our fridge, using a bunch of our magnets, are two pieces of documentation. 

GWG will often print things and stick them on the fridge rather than just tell us, like his quarterly schedule, or paperwork from the insurance company, now that he has his own insurance policy. 

Today I walked in and saw his Application for Graduation pinned up. 

Wow. This is looking real. 

It's mid February just about. He's doing his academics, and then will have to do his clinical placement. And. Well I just fucking hope everything goes well. I'm hopeful. Right? We can be hopeful. I'm hopeful that in May, there's a graduation ceremony. And he said he wants to attend it, and we have some people over. 

It'll be a victory. 

He's looking at jobs already. I kind of want him to slow his roll - like, pass the classes first, and then let's get you figured out for work. 

He is ready to get his future started, which is why the last academic fiasco hurt so much. He has to do it and succeed. Please keep him in your prayers. 

I'm not in a hurry to lose him. Having him here at the house is a blessing. He went to the market today as I was in meetings, he picked what was for dinner (beef stroganoff) and pre-prepped things for me. When he's not here, it's PB&J sammitches. 

Digits below. But there it is. For realsies.
