Graduation

Today is Sunday and my daughter transitioned from law student to Lawyer. I have never felt so overwhelmned with emotion. She has been in school without break for 22 years starting with preschool and finishing at law school. We had a lovely party with friends and family to celebrate and it was surreal. I still can not believe she is now going to begin to study for her law license. She has a job as an Assoiciate Lawyer waiting for her when all is done in August. She not only transitioned from student to lawyer but from child to adulthood. In the midst of all the turmoil of taking me to chemo, losing her grandmother, she prevailed and finished. They gave out awards and she did not recieve any, but for the young woman who battled againest all odds and to have made it ....is a true sign of achievement. If there had been award for the one who worked full time, took care of a ailing mother and always smiled.....she would have won. She is a winner in my eyes....She is the top of her class in my heart. She is my daughter!
