My Mom's A College Graduate

About a month ago, Camden and I had the chance to go to Utah to see my mom graduate from college. Because of pregnancy and illness, my mother was unable to finish her last semester.  She always wanted to finish it, but somehow raising 5 children got in the way (we're needy children :) ). She recently went back and finished and all 5 of us kids flew/drove out for it. 
The "Original 7"
While there, we had the opportunity to go to a luncheon congratulating her, to her commencement and graduation, and she even got interviewed by BYUTV--they made a commercial out of her journey through her degree. 
She is a true hero to not only her five children, but to hundreds of people that she has influenced through her callings in church, through the school board, and her every day activities.  I am so proud of her! Love you, Mom!
