Today was just one of those really great days!  Brad was laughing at me this morning because I was trying to figure out what outfit went with my warmest boots because I had to go on a campus tour today....I know, right?!  OF ALL THE DAYS!  But, I had this terrific family visiting the university from New York...it was such a blessing to spend a large part of the day with them.  They too have a house full of girls....well, their's are starting to leave the house, but we could definitely relate and the dad is a pastor.  He actually made me tear up during our meeting together because we asked if they had any more questions and he said he just had one comment.  He said, "I just want SAU to know how blessed they will be if my daughter decides to come here..." then he proceeded to share a few reasons why he is so proud of her....the mom was like, "why are you doing this?" :)  But, it was probably one of the most awesome moments of awkwardness I have been a part of!

After a bunch of tough days it was great to have one like this....an inspirational one....it makes answering the question, "why are you doing this?"  so much clearer!
