In reply to the discussion: Tell us how proud you are of your kid(s) [View all]av8rdave
(10,573 posts)38. Here goes...
My son graduated summa cum laude from Alabama. He is a data analyst for a major insurance company/bank that serves military members while he awaits the start of medical school. His wife is nearing completion of her PhD in theoretical chemistry.
My daughter is a successful real estate agent and a regional director of marketing for a major soft drink maker. Her fiancée travels the world as a troubleshooter for a major energy company.
More important than all of the above, they are loving, caring, empathetic and community - involved people. I couldn't be any more proud.
Thanks for letting me brag!
