Here's a pic of my Mom and my Daughter 35 years ago in 1978, it seems like I just took this picture last year, my Mother has since passed (had a great life) and my Daughter is very successful now, the point is, for anyone still having kids at home, enjoy and cherish your Family, because nothing stays the same, Family is everything.

No kidding. Our daughter just started ASU and it seemed like yesterday I was carrying her on my shoulders. As you said, enjoy every moment as you can.

Shea is doing a major in biology this year, then moving into a major in criminal justice at the downtown campus next year. Her goal is to land a job in forensics.

Wow, that's very similar to what my younger daughter is pursuing, except she is attending a Jr college for undergrad. Mine wants to work for Border Patrol.

Glad to see they finally condemned Manzanita, or whatever they're doing to it lol. Looked like the scene of a scary movie last time I drove by, all the windows were removed.

I do a lot of work for Santa Monica PD and they gave her a tour and told her, there will always be crime and it's a good field to get into.

She's in Manzanita now and it's like a 5 star resort. She got lucky, everything is brand new.

Oh wow, good to hear. It was definitely on its last legs when I was there.

Good to see they did a complete overhaul, it must have been 2012 when I was last up there, the building was a skeleton.

Her undergrad was Political Science, then little miss smarty pants went to St. Louis University Law School (top 10 law school in the country) and then passed the bar first time out, she has her own practice now and is doing very well, she does mostly family law and also, is a child advocate (appointed position) for the State of Missouri, which doesn't pay chit, but it's what she does to give back, she loves kids.

She was voted President St. Louis bar Association when she was 33, it's big deal, I don't know where she gets her smarts, it's not from Dad.

More or less the same here, both daughters earned scholarships for 4 years undergrad. We bought both of them new cars for their hard work. Oldest got a Impala SS in '07, youngest got a Camaro RS in '12. They are paying for Grad school themselves.

She's getting a college education and a shingle that will help her get a good job, I think it's cool, some kids won't get off their butts to go to school, good for her, when she walks you'll be standing tall,.........................hey, that's my kid.

Thanks for the compliments, BTW.
