My little red tether is my anchor in running with my friends. A beautiful guide dog has been my tether/anchor in mobility and independence for 17 years: 1. Pantera 2. Cricket, and now my beautiful 3. Georgina (Georgie). A life of family and friends is my joy and anchor in life.

The human spirit is stronger than anything that can happen to it. CC Scott

Celebrating

Kendall graduated from Utah State University today. Congratulations, Kendall.   You are awesome and so excited to see what is next for you.  Some of my favorite points that I remember :)  from the speeches ... All of you think you can change the world, because you CAN! The human spirit is alive and well!  Follow your passion and in so doing you will be satisfied at the end of the day!  Limits create opportunities to innovate!  Give back ... serve others.  
 Love the picture below :).  Kendall received such incredible support from his sister.  Pretty special.   
On the drive home Kendall commented on the support and how much it meant to have family 
cheering him on.  Indeed.  
Cricket and I needed to have a little conversation.   She is so used to being photographed! With all these people taking pictures it did not mean that she was to be in all the photo shoots of people we didn't know.  She actually sat down and was ready to pose with a different family!  Oops.  Awkward moment :).

In May KSL, Channel 5 is featuring Mothers each Sunday on their 10 PM News.  Tomorrow night, our family will be featured :).  What a special Mother's Day treat!

Congratulations to you son. MOM's favorite part of the speech you mentioned was "Follow your passion." She she's when you do that then you look forward to waking up every day. Hahhahha to Cricket.
Blessings,
