This isn't about the Meyer-Matthews "feud".
Today is the deadline day nationwide for this fall's incoming freshman
to let the schools know of their decision as to where they'll attend.
It came down to the wire in our house, but I just got a text from my
son Shane letting me know that he will be sending in the deposit that confirms
and holds his place in the class, to the University of Florida!
As some of you know, I am not a UF grad - one of my biggest regrets in
life is not taking school seriously AT ALL when I was in high school, and by
the time I figured it all out, I was unable to realize my ambition to attend
and graduate from UF. I've always hoped that my boys would want that for
themselves and would be able to accomplish it.
I've tried real hard to not force him to live out my dream, so I'm
particularly excited that he came to this decision himself. I'm awfully proud
of him, and can't really put into words how great/overwhelmed/emotional I feel
about this right now.
I guess I need to buy one of those "My kid and my money go to UF"
bumper stickers now!
GO GATORS!
Steve M.
