She is beautiful - and she's going to have to cut her hair if she becomes a Zoomie.

That is a beautiful picture! Congratulations on her acceptance to her dream school, this may be a stupid question but if she's going the Air Force Academy will she be in the Air Force? I know my brother did something like that when he went to college. I am so jealous, she's doing what I wish I could do - aeronautical engineering. I wish her much luck with that

Yes it is a military college, so she will be in a 4 year college and graduate as an officer and will have to be an officer for 5 years to pay back her education. She will have some military duties while in college, not anything related to combat it will be formations and things like that. She will have to go to boot camp and the beginning of july and she will have to make it through that first.

As a 4th classmen(freshman) she will have to mam and sir upper classmen etc and salute and be in a uniform. She is a conformist so I don't foresee a problem with that.

Congratulations to your daughter, you must indeed be a proud mother, i think you and I both have daughters the same age if i remember rightly, empty nest will be hard at first, but isn't it great to think you have got them to that point where they can go out in the world and be independent, i think that is one of the best gifts you can give your child.

You sure do have gorgeous girls, and very intelligent ones as well,hope all goes extremely well for her.

Your daughter is lovely and congratulations to her for getting into the school she wanted.

The Colorado Springs area is very pretty with lots of nearby hiking! I imagine it looks pretty amazing from the air, too.

Yes I will have an excuse to go to Colorado. I have never been. I have heard parents can rent cabins on campus for cheap but that rumor is not confirmed. Either way I will at least go for parents weekend in September.
