Erik,
today I watched you graduate from college. As you crossed the stage to receive your degree I realized how BLESSED we are to experience this milestone in your life and you would have been proud of me, because I didn't cry like every other time you have accomplished something. Instead I was happy and of course proud that you have grown into this incredible person who is intelligent, confident, and a joy to be around. I have watched you reach your goals time and again and I have no doubt about your future. I am excited for you as you make this transition to independence...it will be an adjustment for both of us, but probably mostly for me, because YOU are ready. I wish you the best of everything as you go off to Grad school! Isn't it nice having your own personal cheering section wherever you go? :)
