Our lil Obama


Thursday documented the day one of my baby sisters graduated. She graduated from seminary, YW, and High School....and had to speak at all of them! It is amazing how quickly time flies. Whether it was getting into bubble baths with our pajamas still on (when mom wasn't looking), pretending to be spies in the dumpsters of our developing neighborhoods in Colorado, or having 3 Jackson girls compete in the 5a State Track Meet, representing  both of the rival high schools, we are still experiencing life together one step at a time. We are a team: We laugh together, We cry together. We support each other. We grow together.
I love my sisters.

I just cannot believe how quickly they are growing up into beautiful, mature, ambitious women.


 
 Hannah is the Senior Class President of Layton High and one of her responsibilities included speaking at graduation. After numerous hours spent memorizing and preparing, she delivered a solid speech in front of thousands of her peers, educators, and their families. As she concluded, I just wanted to stand on my chair and scream to the entire stadium, "I am related to that INCREDIBLE girl, right there!!!!"


Hannah, I am proud of you. I love you. I am thrilled to have you join Chels and I at the "Y" this year.
You are definitely going places...
and I will ALWAYS be in the front row cheering for you as you do.
