A Shoutout to the Graduate!


Woohoo - Cboo graduates on Saturday morning and will receive his Bachelor of Science degree in Business Administration/Finance. Congrats Connor!! We are so proud of him and all he has accomplished! Plus bonus, he's a wonderful son and brother. Even though his Dad and I have made numerous mistakes (who doesn't make a few along the parenting road?) he seems to have turned out OK! One of the "mistakes" he reminds me of still --- was that we sent him off to kindergarten when he had barely turned 5. He has an early September birthday, you see. I figured, he's bright, even if he was a little behind, he'd catch up and, of course, he did. And when he was the last of his friends to be able to drive and then later (much later) to drink, I thought that was a good thing, wouldn't you agree! ;) We are excited about the possibilities for him in the future and so happy to have been able to enjoy his college career with him. Good luck sweetie! And always, remember . . . there is no place like Nebraska!!
