Warning Warning: Bragging post ahead!
Yesterday, LoLo signed with a division one university to play softball. (and to get an awesome edumacation at the same time) 
When she was five years old, on a whim we signed her up for T-ball.
Who would have thunk that she would take it this far.
We are very proud of her. Not only of her athleticism and good academics, but of the whole person she is. (by the way, she gets her mad athletic skills from me. lol)
She is a great young lady who I am proud to call my own. {Both of them actually…dang, I should have had MORE.}
And to answer your possible questions:
*The school is only 30 minutes away.
*And yes she is still ‘going away’ to college.
*And no, I won’t be doing her laundry on the weekends. (I will cook for her though, I can’t give up everything darnit!)
