There are 3 days left until graduation!  I have been reminded the past few weeks of the love and support that my family has given me over the years, and it means so much to me.  I received an email last week from Granddaddy Dalt and Maria saying,
"We continue to be so proud of you and what you are doing with your life."  I got a card from Grandma Ellie today that said,
"I am so very proud of you, and always have been."  It is comforting knowing that as I graduate and go to Africa, I have a 100% support system behind me at home.  I heard Mark Harris' song
"Find Your Wings" on the radio today as I was driving to Clemson from Charlotte, and it reminded me of the friends and family that have helped me find my wings the past 21 years.  I just wanted to include the lyrics and say
THANK YOU and
I love you! 

It's only for a moment you are mine to hold

The plans that heaven has for you

Will all too soon unfold

So many different prayers I'll pray

For all that you might do

But most of all I'll want to know

You're walking in the truth

And if I never told you

I want you to know

As I watch you grow

I pray that God would fill your heart with dreams

And that faith gives you the courage

To dare to do great things

I'm here for you whatever this life brings

So let my love give you roots

And help you find your wings

May passion be the wind

That leads you through your days

And may conviction keep you strong

Guide you on your way

May there be many moments

That make your life so sweet

Oh, but more than memories

I pray that God would fill your heart with dreams

And that faith gives you the courage

To dare to do great things

I'm here for you whatever this life brings

So let my love give you roots

And help you find your wings

It's not living if you don't reach for the sky

I'll have tears as you take off

But I'll cheer as you fly
