Well friends, the verdict is in...she's going to University of Guelph~
After a very long decision process, Kailey has finally decided to go to Guelph. She had applied to many schools, and had felt it was best for her to have as many options as possible. With that however, came too many choices which eventually caused some grief.
I was a little disappointed that she didn't go to Ottawa. Only because I felt the program the University Of Ottawa offered had an option for Pharmacology. With also an option of 4th year co-op. I had thought maybe a young lady being educated in Ottawa with a possible government job would have been ideal. What a great start to a wonderful life~
However, it wasn't what she was looking for. I am very proud to announce that she was accepted into the Bachelors of Science, Honours Major Molecular Biology & Genetics.
She had actually thought she'd be going to Western University, but when she got into this program offered at Guelph she felt it too be a better opportunity for her career.
Ever since she was young she has said she want's to be a doctor. I suppose this is the start...and within some time she will have a better understanding of whether or not she will follow through with this dream.
We took a tour at the campus this week, and I must say it is beautiful. Paul and I had to come away with some souvenirs, I got myself a "University of Guelph mom mug". We sure are proud parents~
Kailey felt it was the place for her and she is looking forward to living in residence and having some fun. I am happy that she will be close enough that if I want to see her or bring her some food, snacks or treats...I can just take a fairly quick jaunt to Guelph. We can meet for lunch, she can come home for Sunday dinners..she was so smart to take this into consideration when accepting her University. Sunday family dinners are important and to be honest I was feeling a bit stressed slightly anxious to think she'd be missing most of them.
Overall my lovelies, its an excited household tonight.
On a slightly different note, June 3rd 1989 was the day Paul and I met.
We were at a mutual friends pool party, and when I first seen him sitting at the kitchen table I was instantly attracted to him.
As we sit here tonight at our diningroom table figuring out our daughters classes for her fall semester, I am still just as attracted to him as I was 26 years ago tonight~
Until tomorrow chummies, good night and god bless~
