Chris graduated with his Masters Degree yesterday. That alone is a huge accomplishment, but the night before graduation we were invited to an awards dinner for the University. When we got there we were seated at a "Reserved" table, and everyone else could sit where they wanted. Hmmm. So when the awards started, Chris was announced as the recipient of the "Blake academic award of excellence" for having the highest cumulative GPA upon graduation. Oh my gosh!!! He was so surprised. He kinda laughed out loud. He was also recognized as being on the national deans list for all consecutive semesters and also in "Who's Who among college students" . What an awesome surprise! He worked so hard, and we really struggled through his Graduate education, and he still had the highest GPA. I am sooooooo proud of you honey!
