This won't last for long....

It's official, I am a reading specialist!! Whohoo! I can't believe that it was three years ago about this time that I started grad school. The last three years have been long, but amazing. From the drives to the epic conversations that we got into as a cohort. I grew to love those people as my own family. I can't help but wonder what will I do with myself now every Thursday? I can't help but think of the song, It won't be like this for long. Seriously, I didn't think school would ever end. But it did, and I am on to bigger and better things. I am so excited to transition into this new phase of marriage, kids, friends, family all with my best friend by my side. Seriously, I do not know what I would do without him. It's weird but god knew exactly what he was doing. Mitch is my rock. He calms me when I am being unreasonable, he doesn't let me see only one side, he makes me feel important, and keeps me going in the right direction. Without him I would be lost. He was such a crucial part in my masters. He put up with me always having work, being in Hanford, getting down or stressed without ever saying a word. He also never let me fall. Babe I don't say it enough, but thank you so much for just being you. I may not always want to hear what you say, but I need to. I can't wait to make our lives. We seriously are at the most amazing time. We can do or be anything we want, and I want you to know I support you in anything you do (even if it is a TV in the garage). Well, back to my point as this chapter closes another one is opening. I can't wait to look back on all of this and miss it....

With love,

Shannon
