Brag From The Heart

It is not everyday that a mom brags on herself right? I’m not sure if moms should boast, but it does make us feel good inside so I think all moms should!

As many of you all know, over the last year I have been a full-time college student in the Computers Information Technology program. Mom + Technology = Geek Mom. It’s ok, I will wear the title proudly HAHA!

On to the brag Jen….

I received a letter in the mail yesterday from the college. My fingers hurriedly and ripped it open to see what they possibly had to tell me during my summer break.

Dear Jennifer:

Being named to the President’s List means that a student has earned a 4.0 grade point average on a full-time course load during the most recent semester of enrollment. The President’s List is the highest academic honor bestowed on students prior to graduation.

I am very pleased to advise you that you have been included on the President’s List for spring semester. This distinction will be permanently noted on your transcript.

The entire college family joins me in commending you for having attained this honor. We wish the best for you as you continue your studies.

My heart swelled, my face lit up, and I yelled immediately for my husband to come and see this must-read. He smiled, and just looked into my eyes. He knew I was pretty stoked to get this letter and his arms gently wrapped around mine with the biggest hug. I knew right then, my husband was just as proud as I was.

Now that is a brag from the heart!
