You always said, “I can do it!” And you did!! We could not be more proud of you. Here’s to the next adventure! Love you!!
You may not remember, Isabelle. But the first day we dropped you off in Kindergarten, you ran out after us when we left. Poor kid, you never went to daycare before. At the end of the day, we picked you up and told you, “You made it, baby!” So after we left you in college 4 years ago, let me say that again today: “You made it, baby! Congratulations.”
