Nearly 30 years ago, I graduated from BYU with a Bachelor's of Science in Psychology. I had finished all my coursework in December, but walked that April. Spencer was one-year-old and I was very excited to be done with school. I never even considered grad school at the time and basically only ever worked part-time until Glen graduated and we moved out East the following year.
This past week, Emma graduated from BYU with a Bachelor's of Science in Public Health.
I am proud of all my kids and their accomplishments, but I did feel an extra sense of pride with this graduation, as Emma was our first homeschool graduate, who never attended a minute of public school past 7th grade.
She is a hard worker and a dedicated student and we were thrilled to be there to celebrate this huge accomplishment with her.
It was fun to run into lots of old friends around campus, but mostly we just enjoyed seeing Emma in her element. She has given her heart to her time there in Provo and it's clear she is well-loved by many!
Here she is with her former mission companion and current roommate, Riley, who also graduated.
Next up for Ems...a gap year, probably in Rhode Island with Cam and fam, and then grad school...maybe...if she decides it's right for her!
It's kind of wild that we've got another kid done with their undergrad...and our first BYU grad!
Way to go, Emma! We love you!
