Bible school graduation

My daughter Joy, graduated from Bible School on May 7th. I am so proud of her. She was at the top of her class both years and was the youngest student both years.
Unbekownst to us she had applied for a scholarship from the school for continued education and she won it. Its a small one but it will help pay for books. Joy wants to be a doctor. Here is the announcement I wrote up for her, minus any last names and our address. I wish it would have copied like I wrote it out, it looked so nice.

Joy is proud to be the daughter of the late Charles Michael ******* and wishes he could have shared her accomplishments and life with her.

Joy, a home school graduate at 16, began her Bible College career at Apostolic Faith Bible College in August of 2009.
Joy completed her first year at the Bible College at the top of her class with a 4.0/100.7 cumulative score. She was not the first student to attend at age 16 but she was the most successful student of that young age.
During her first year at Bible College she toured with the school on both the fall and spring choir tours. These tours enabled her to travel to Kansas, Missouri, Oklahoma, Texas, Tennessee and Alabama.
During Joy’s second year of Bible College she decided not to tour with the college on the fall tour but joined the spring tour where she traveled to Texas and West Virginia for concerts.
She ends her Bible College with a bang. Joy is again at the top of her class and while it is her second year at Bible College she is still the youngest student in the school.
Miss Joy plans to spend the summer with her sister Kaleena and brother in law Justin ****** who live in *******, Mo. She plans to work and earn some money for the coming year.
She then plans to join her family in Texas and attend a local college to get her prerequisites and then attend a college to get her doctorate. Joy’s plans are to become a pediatrician.
Her family desires a card shower to congratulate and acknowledge her on her accomplishments.

Joy will be graduating at the beginning of May. She is still the youngest in the school and at the top of her class academically and is the age that most students are when they begin college. I am very proud of her and what she has accomplished. I am sure if her dad were alive he would be very proud of her too.

Joys final grade in New Testament

Can you guess what Joy got on her final for New Testament class?
Yep, another 100. I am so surprised. LOL. Not really, she gets so embarrassed when I brag on here about her, but its my blog and she's my kid. I can brag a little.
I will say that she has done this all on her own and its a gift from God because anyone who really knows me knows she didn't get her smarts from me. Thanks God.
You would really know for sure it is true if I didn't have spell check.

Joy got a 100 on her final in prophesy. So far,100 on both finals today. More tomorrow. I am such a proud mommy. Go Joy.

More happy Joy pictures

The first picture is of her with her new glasses, then her check book, but look at her reaction to the new phone she knew nothing about. It was great.

Joy left to go back to college today. She has gotten an A or better on every paper so far. I am so proud of her. I am so thankful for this opportunity for her. God is so good. He is our refuge and our strength. Thank you God.

Ok now I can tell you

I have been keeping a secret for two whole weeks about Joy. I can tell you about it now. Joy came home from college for the weekend, she got here late last night. We gave her her new glasses, her new checkbook, a cell phone, and a net book. She was so excited. I had such a hard time keeping a secret. We took pictures of her excitement. It was so fun. Now she can stay connected while she is at school.

She said mom you haven't written very much about me and that is why, I was so worried I would spill the beans. You can be sure I have told a lot of folks, though. LOL
