Yesterday Ashley graduated! What an awesome day, I am beyond proud and ecstatic for her. I know this last year was so hard for her. She was going to school full time and then part time at Dixie as well because she wants to eventually get in the nursing program at Dixie.
When Ashley started college right after high school she was pretty sure she was going to be a school teacher. But she slowly started to be intrigued with medical courses and just excelled from there. I know the nursing program here in St. George is so hard to get into. Just keep trying and I know you will be able to do it one day. We love you so much and keep working hard, it will be worth it.
When we moved to St. George Ashley was in the middle of her 5th grade year. Moving was such a hard decision for me just because I didn't want Ashley to leave the friends she had had since she was so little.
On her first day of school here in St. George she met Sierra and the next year Devan. They have been through a lot as friends, but always seem to come back together. They both came to the graduation for Ashley last night. I know it wasn't easy for them. Devan drove all the way from up north with her cute little guy and Sierra has a brand new baby boy. But they did and when they all got together for a picture, I lost it. I had held it in pretty well for me, but to see these girls all grown up and being amazing young women it got me. Thank you girls for being there for Ash on her special night!
