  1. Congratulations to your son and to you and your husband. Great job. We need to celebrate over lunch sometime soon.

  2. Congratulations to your son. I was recently in his shoes (I’m actually going back to school this summer) and I know how hard it is to be in college and not call home asking for money. It makes the times when you are home that much sweeter.
