Today is the start of Finals for Miss Jackie.
Senior year is 2/3 over. Wow. I remember her first day of Kinder , and driving her to Middle School, and the first time she had homework in second grade. I remember play groups and feeding ducks, sewing dresses with her and years and years of Girl Scout meetings.
I am amazed to think that this time next year she will almost be done with her first year of college.
I am not amazed that she is smart, sweet, and such a nice person. She always has been.

I know she doesn’t need luck. she is smart and she has worked for this success – but what am I supposed to say?
