Cutting the apron Strings

Rigby ordered Seleck's cap and gown today.  Can this really be happening?  Where has time gone?

The first day of March lingers bringing with it the approaching first of "finish lines" for our oldest  son, Seleck.  I ask myself, "will I be able to do it? can I cut the apron strings?

He has been accepted to Weber State University, University Utah, BYU, BYU Idaho, and SUU.  He has scholarship offers at Weber State, U of U and SUU.  We are so incredibly proud of him.  He has done just about everything he has set out to do-- even more.  The kid even put two 80 foot letters, CV, on a nearby Mountain.

He races now against time- Sterling scholar portfolio, rugby games and preparations, student body president responsibilities, Cedar City Bonanza.  I will never forget holding



 
him for the first time, black hair, beautiful skin- he turns 18 in April.... mission papers.

This weekend, he is at a leadership conference at SUU competing for yet another scholarship.

I wish we could take all of the credit, but he came this way.  We have spent our whole lives trying to keep up with him.  

When it comes to deep roots- this kid is a REDWOOD!
