...not to forget about or leave out the man of our house in these sometimes very in depth postings. So, in light of the upcoming annual fatherly celebration I thought I would post an ode to a very special guy (mostly 'cause he never reads this stuff unless I show him, so I can conveniently forget to show him this posting :-)
I think everyone is caught up on our very lengthy ordeal with Scott's schooling so I don't think I need to bore anyone with any more of the gory details. But what's really important to note here is that he is my hero... he really set his mind to this goal. How many of us would have given up 3, 4, 5 years ago. I know I would have (and sometimes did, but shhhhh, don't tell him). This man had many, many obstacles to overcome to be able to forge ahead, but all along I know he saw the end result in his mind and that's what kept driving him, it's what kept him at the library sometimes 6 days a week (thank goodness government workers get Sunday off or he would have been there everyday of the week - of course by then I'm sure they would have dedicated an entire study wing to him).
I am the most proud of the example he has set for our children. Our kids will NEVER under value education and it will be a top priority for them. They won't remember these years (at least I hope they don't), but they will know of the love their dad had for them, so much so that the sacrifices he made by being away from us WILL pay off and will afford us so many more luxuries and memories.
So to the big man of the house... we love you dearly and are so grateful for all of your accomplishments and achievements. Happy Father's Day!!
