The best

 

My granddaughter graduated from college this weekend and I could not be prouder.

Anytime someone manages to get their degree it displays their willingness to work hard and persevere, but my granddaughter did this against incredible odds.

Here is a child who bought her prom dresses at second hand stores and altered them into beautiful. A girl who started working the minute she was old enough without ever letting her grades slip. A person who persevered in a home that did not value education all that much.

She made sure both she and her sister had all the ordinary milestones so many children take for granted. She is that exception to the rule, the one who made it beyond all odds.

And she managed to do it with style!

Once touring Europe with her friend who was going to school in Ireland, Moving far from home and setting up her own household. Supporting herself from the day she graduated from high school while working on this degree and now holding down a wonderful job that makes a difference in this world.

A human being just can't do any better than she does.
