Finally...the wait is over! Yesterday, Brittany signed the "
Official Letter of Intent" with the
University of South Alabama in
Mobile. She was awarded an athletic scholarship to run cross country and track. We are so excited
AND relieved that a decision has finally been made! I feel like a huge weight has been lifted from my shoulders! The
Univ. of South AL. just seemed like such a perfect fit for her. She was very impressed with it from the moment she stepped on campus. All I really wanted is for her to be happy wherever she chose to go...but it's a
HUGE bonus that she'll be only about
25-30 miles from where we'll be moving! She'll be having an official signing party at her high school within the next week or two, so I'll be sure to take lots of pictures. Thank you all so much for your support, encouragement, and prayers during this stressful process. I can't tell you how much it meant!

It's wonderful to have this big decision made April. Congrats to Brittany. It will be nice for all of you to that she's on a campus not to far away. That makes it very easy to fit in visits here and there, but at the same time Brittany can be totally independent.
I seriously LOVE that she will be so close. That is wonderful! : )
Yay - I'm so excited for you guys! And it is so great that she will still be close enough to come home when she needs to!
Great news April!
