We are so proud.

Dearest Jake,

You're finishing up with your last final at Stanford as I type.  Just a few more minutes and you'll be done with your master's degree.  Can you believe that it was almost two years ago when we first arrived at Stanford?  It was just the two of us, with a U-haul truck filled to the brim with excitement and hope.  You were eager to learn and to create, to prepare yourself for the world and for the opportunities that await you.

And Stanford didn't disappoint.  How could it?  The past two years were hard and challenging but they were also exciting, fun, and fulfilling.  Thank you for such an awesome ride.

Two years later, we are packing up our belongings again and are heading for yet another adventure.  Only this time we have one smarter brain, two hearts filled with more gratitude, a few stretch marks, and last but not least, a chubby blue-eyed mini man.

Congratulations babe.  We are so so so proud of you.

Love,
Claire
