First day “Fit”

Posted on

I miss you so much, Kid. It sounds like you had a good first week. I haven’t gotten to talk with you yet, but you appreciated how the photography class had tech support come in to get you all set up on Adobe for the term. After the busiest day of 5 classes – physics and others – you reported having a really good day. We’ll take that!!


Year 2 Rhody Ram!

Moved you in yesterday! Coddington Hall is your new home… overlooking a beautiful oak tree and the stadium. You moved from joyful to NERVAcited to nervaCITED over the course of the weekend as is COMPLETELY normal!! Greta made her drive from IA safely, and you checked in with Hope.

Can’t tell you how proud we are of you!! Takes a lot of courage to go to school far away from home, and your determination is inspiring. We left you yesterday with basically a blank canvas of a room. Can’t wait to see what you do with it and your year. Can’t wait to see how your professional interests continue to deepen. You started with an interest in chemical engineering. Now you are considering an intersection between material and chemical engineering with a focus on the environment – maybe something along the lines of biodegradable packaging. It means so little if this is the direction you actually end up going, but you are deepening your understandings of the field and your interests, which is FANTASTIC! You are listening and prioritizing your own brilliant mind and beautiful feelings.

You are so strong, so capable. Spend a few minutes every day thinking about these amazing gifts you’ve been given!!

A few pics from the weekend – we probably should’ve taken more… I’m losing my touch.
