Thank you for giving me the opportunity to attend college. By giving me the encouragement and financial abilities to be here, I have been able to focus on school and experience college life to the full. I know the classes and fees are outrageous but you guys pay them with only a small complaint, lol. The support you have given me over the years has helped me push through those tough semesters. Knowing I have people in my corner every step of the way keeps me motivated to graduate.

Even though I am excited to start a new semester, there are certain things that I will miss about being at home with you guys. Like the food. Definitely the food. Thank you for buying all my favorite foods and stocking them when I come home. Also, thank you for letting me take the credit card to the grocery store, hope your bill isn’t too high when you get your statement. Love you guys!

I want to remind you all that I will probably be calling once a week when I get overwhelmed so you better get your pep talks ready for action. College gets stressful and to be honest, sometimes I need my parents’ advice because you really do give the best advice. And I’m not just saying that to get brownie points! But don’t worry, I’ll still call when good things happen so you know I am actually enjoying college.

Last but not least, remember and know that I love you guys more than you know. I may not show it all the time when I am calling in a panic over an exam, but I do. You guys know me the best and have always been my number one supporters. I am grateful for your constant love and that you guys are only a phone call away, or a two to twenty hour drive away.

Also, I might need some money for groceries soon…

Love,

Your Somewhat Normal Daughter
