Big day for all parties involved, congrats to everyone.

Amazing how big a house gets when all the kids are gone. Best wishes for all

Spare, please send my congratulations to Kendall and my congratulations to you on the new empty nest! Our 2nd daughter just graduated from UNCW and took a position as an art teacher in Greensboro NC. We got to enjoy an empty nest for a solid 4 years, but now the nest has been filled again as she moved back home for a while until she gets the next chapter figured out. Our oldest daughter graduated a couple years ago from NC State and has been a math teacher in Winston-Salem NC ever since. She and her high school sweetheart got married in 2020. I'm so proud of both of them (and my son in law)! Also proud of me and my wife for making it through all of the struggles that go along with raising children. Hats off to you and your wife for raising your daughter right and for all of the extra things y'all had to deal with along the way. Now sit back and enjoy the empty nest and figure out how you are going to pay for all the tuition, books, rent, meal plans, transportation, power bills, etc. etc. etc. etc. Just kidding - sort of...I'm sure you either have a plan or will figure it out. LOL

That is excellent news - looks like everyone’s prayers didn’t go astray and Kendall’s bravery and your great hard work parenting are rewarded. Couldn’t happen to nicer, more generous folks.

Who says prayers don't work? Kendall is a great example of their power. Happy she got through her back surgery ok and great she's starting school.
This has been a long, emotional thread full of ups and downs. Happiness for kids that made it, sadness for those that fought their last battle. All will forever remain in my prayers. Thank you for sharing this with us Spare. Much love to Kendall and all the kids. <3

Silence, in the face of evil, is itself evil. Not to speak is to speak, not to act is to act. God will not hold us guiltless.
