graduation girl

Shannon graduates from college today!!

We're all shocked and in disbelief. Not because we didn't think she'd make it through, but because it feels like just yesterday she started at Taylor University!

She is the youngest and most beautiful of the Harris bunch -- just look at her holding little Andrew!

It's no surprise she excelled in her school work and even more so in her personal life. She's the best person I know at making friends. It's a gift.

She's graduating with a degree in elementary education and secondary math {I think...pretty sure}. It makes sense considering she comes from a family of educators.

Her Dad - used to teach math, now a pastor {teaches people about God}
Her Mom - teaches music
Her oldest brother, Jason - used to teach 5th grade, now a worship leader {teaches people to sing}
Her SIL, Marissa - English teacher
Her brother, Darren - high school math teacher
Her SIL, Kasie - 4th grade teacher
Her SIL, ME! - sub...I teach everyone!
Her brother, Ryan - nevermind. He's the weird non-teacher in the family.

It just so happens that I think she will be an amazing teacher...or whatever it is she choses to be or do! In the real world things change, follow your heart Shannon and do something you love!

Ryan and I are so sad not to celebrate with her today. We're thinking of you a lot Shannon and are very proud of all you've done! It's a big deal to make it through 4 years of college!!

Can't wait to celebrate on Monday! They're making a pit stop at our house on their way home to Jersey....stay tuned for the festivities!
