Conquered That Monster

|
For years, there was always one thing that Robyn wanted and could not claim.  That one thing always lingered over here and she had convinced herself that it was out of her reach and that she would just have to settle. 

She never settles.  When she wants something, she gets it. 

Eighteen months ago she approached me after dinner and told me she wanted to finish school.  In order for her to do that, we made some drastic life changes and settled in to our new life - a different life - but we knew it was temporary and that the final outcome would be a journey but it was a journey we were willing to sacrifice for and we both went after it. 

On Friday, Robyn graduate from Texas Wesleyan University with her degree.  Not only did she graduated, she graduated with the honor of being on the Dean's List - another statement she never thought she would make.

Over the past eighteen months I have seen Robyn grow and change as her final goal became closer and closer.  She took her challenge head on and killed it.  That's why I love her.

Congratulations Robyn, you accomplished your goal and I could not be happier.

Way to go!! That is something to be proud of and the example you have shown to Jax is one he will always remember... if you want something bad enough, you can do it. You have to work hard and give a few things up but in the end... it's all worth it! I am proud of you.
