Happy Graduation!
I just wanted to say congrats to my wife on her recent graduation with a masters in Museum Studies (technically she still has an independent study left, but she walked in graduation last week so that counts enough for me!). I admire anyone who seeks knowledge and Rachael is the biggest knowledge-seeker I know.
This endeavor was a tough one for her in the beginning. I remember discussions years ago about how pursuing a masters will take a long time (working full-time has made the process take about 4 years), how it will cost us a decent amount of money, and how with our other commitments it may be a lot to handle. She's worked really hard and has been terrifically patient in pacing the workload so that neither she nor I would go crazy. In a world where many people act as if education stops after college, I'm proud and inspired to be in the presence of a life-long learner.
