My dad has been a trooper through it all. He had to make the decision to do it. They kept the news from me until after I left this training class I'm attending in Cedar Rapids. Gotta head home to Lake Charles in a few days to meet my parents and my younger brothers.

And baby girl got accepted to Howard. She applied less than two weeks ago and got the acceptance already. She's excited by it. I'm hopeful that their excitement is displayed through that financial aid package.
