A shout out is in order for my beautiful cousin Keely, who has just graduated from college. In true Keely fashion, she has finished up one year early. And next up is law school.
I am proud of her beyond belief. It's not only because she's strikingly gorgeous, or a diligently hard worker, or possesses the strongest backbone of any young person I have ever met. For she is all of those things and so much more.
A friend's mother once remarked on how mature she was: "It's like...it's almost like talking to an adult" she confided to my aunt. I think Keely must've been seven or eight years old at the time.
Once in elementary school Keely caught someone cheating off of her test. She went straight up to her teacher and asked to please have her seat moved. Well, what was she supposed to do? It simply wasn't fair! I remember even then remarking on how strong she was. At 29, I'm still not sure I'd have the chutzpah to do that.
She is just one of those rare, self possessed, brilliant individuals. The future is hers for the taking. I can hardly wait to see what happens next.
Love you, Bubs. xoxo
We are so proud of Bubs!!! I am hoping that after she becomes a lawyer she can help me out of any jams I may get into!

Tear...Sorry for my late response, I'm a little backed up on my Odd Broad reading. Thanks for the shout-out Sah. I love you!
