Welcome to the 'Ville

It looks like our sweet girl is going to be a Cardinal in the Fall.  The University of Louisville gave her a D1 offer - in academics - hah!  We're super proud of how hard she's worked and know she'll continue to do that for UL.  She was accepted into the Honors College and in December received notification that she was also accepted into the School of Nursing Guaranteed Early Admission Program which automatically reserves her a spot in Fall 2023.  It's bittersweet for this mama as Karson is my best friend.  Her absence will be felt every single day.  There will be a hole in my heart knowing that she may never fully come back and be my little girl who needs me.  I'm just not prepared to say good-bye...I'm not ready...I'm not sure I'll ever feel "ready!" It gives me a great deal of comfort knowing I have extended family in Louisville who will love her and take care of her (Kenton I'm counting on you to be her rock).  She's also got an incredible roommate who she met in kindergarten at Plano - Piper Coleman.  These two have grown up together and remained friends to this day.  While we've not managed to make a campus visit, we plan to do so very soon.  COVID makes everything much harder but fingers and toes crossed, the light at the end of the tunnel is coming.

Karson only applied to UL and WKU.  Our mailbox and her email are constantly being bombarded with college admissions and requests to apply.  However, these two schools were her top picks.  This week she was accepted into the WKU Mahurin Honors College.  She was also invited to apply for the Cherry Presidential Scholarship which is an incredible honor as well and still on the table.
