Super Excited

So, Babygirl called me last week and told me the Deltas on her campus were having some kind of meeting specifically for the Freshman class. She was super excited but unsure of whether she should attend (she's a Jr.). I told her to contact her advisers and go from there. She called me back a while later & said she was going but she was excited & nervous. I calmed her down and told her exactly what to do...which she did to the tee. Upon leaving she told me what happened, who she saw and how informative the meeting was. She was happy she decided to go.

A couple of days later she told me she went to an anti-hazing seminar required of all students intending to pledge on her campus. Needless to say she was well informed. Many thoughts were running through my mind while we were talking. I interrupted her and told her in no uncertain terms...sister or no sister I will come....and before I could finish she said, 'Oh gosh I know, I know!!!! You and the ENTIRE crew will come to campus. I got you, no worries.' Now let me say I will in no way, shape, form or fashion disrupt, prevent or try to 'ease' whatever process she has. But that being said, this is my child we're talkin and Lola has left her care in my hands. *insert side-eye*. I want to have a great experience when the time comes. This will set the tone for her future once she graduates. I'll be happy with whatever she decides...wait let me say this. I will love & respect her and the decision she makes but um if she decides to follow in my footsteps I will be OVERjoyed and UBER-excited with her decision. I just want her to make her presence known wherever she goes and whatever she does positively. We raised her right and I know she'll make the best decision for herself.


Can I just say secretly I'm hoping she follows my footsteps....
