    Proud Kilted Father



    My daughter just finished nursing school earning her BSN and RN going to night school over the past few years - while raising kids and enduring a messy divorce.

    She's worked in hospital burn wards for years so went into nursing with her eyes wide open.

    Her father is very proud of her.

    RN Pinning ceremony was last Friday.

    And those are Honors cords she's wearing for good grades.

    Congratulations to you and her, Ron.

    Proud!

    You have every right to be extremely proud of her, and yourself.
    Congratulations, you raised a wonderful woman.

    Nope, she's 7 hours away down in Tucson metro area. Was a long drive down and back but for sure worth it!

    Congratulations to your daughter Ron and it is obvious from your photo with her, that you are a very proud dad and rightly so.

    Congratulations. You should have let us know you would be down around the Old Pueblo. We could have had a kilt night.
