Do we have a case of senioritis in this house? Well, not exactly. Not yet. After all, it is only first semester. But we do have a senior! I realized that I haven't given an update on Moira in quite a while, so I thought I'd get some family members up to speed on her. Moira's the type of gal who knows who she is, what she wants to do, where she wants to go, and when. She is a very confident young lady. (So confident that she doesn't bat an eye at committing to sewing 40 skirts for her dance school in a weekend. Ha! That's another story.....Let's just say that Grandma M came for a visit at just the right time!). Back to senioritis....For the last couple of years, Moira has had her heart set on attending
Franciscan University in Steubenville, Ohio. She would like to study nursing starting next fall. In late September she sent her application to FUS, and while she and Eileen were visiting Tim and Suzy in Steubenville with Grandma and Grandpa D, she received the letter of acceptance. She was very excited! Last week, she received a (relatively) small academic scholarship - also exciting! Of course we have to do some serious money crunching, but God willing, this would be "Plan A" for Moira in the fall.
For now, thankfully, her senior year is not too overwhelming. She is taking American government, Catholic doctrine, advanced biology with anatomy and health. She also continues to be very involved with Irish dancing in addition to working about 20 hours or so per week at the Packer Pro Shop. So, it's all good. We are very proud of Moira. Just one question....where oh where did the time go??!!
