Steve gave me the best graduation gift ever which was to stay awake with our vomiting Kiera last night and let me sleep. THAT IS LOVE.
On a more serious note, I got to thinking about how much of my life I've dedicated to education and why it was that I did it. Yep, I'm a nurse, but my most important job is being a mother. SO, if it was worth it to spend those countless years reading textbooks endlessly about subjects that barely apply to my life, isn't it worth it to read a few books on parenting? I THOUGHT I was doing a fairly good job at parenting until I recently read the following:
It made me realize I'm not such an expert after all. I guess people who actually STUDY these things know more than me!
I'm not sure that I will ever attend official school again, but I do plan on continuing my education independently. It is amazing the wealth of knowledge that is out there that is very applicable to me (parenting, healthy cooking, food storage, influencing people). Here's to lifelong learning!

[pat][pat][pat][kiss] that's my girl. You should scan your diploma and post it for me to see. cute kid pics by the way.
Congratulations! I think you're so smart to have continued. And yay for continuing to read and be teachable. I think that's half of what we're supposed to learn at school. You're great, Cambrie.
Congratulations Cambrie. That is fantastic. And I so agree with you about graduations-way rather sit at home and do nothing than attend one. I am already dreading going to Adam's in two years.
Great job Cambrie!!!!
