is graduating from college today. Hilary, I am so proud of you. On your 18th birthday, I posted this as you were planning to leave for college. One paragraph I wrote:
"You are 18, and off to college. It is interesting that you chose engineering as your major, a predominantly male profession. Women comprise only nine percent in this field of study. Wherever God leads you, I believe that like Deborah, you have what it takes to be successful. It doesn't matter if you are the youngest, or that you are female, or anything else that some might perceive as an obstacle to being a great leader. When you follow God with all your heart, soul, mind, & strength, nothing is impossible.
Five years later, you have completed this task well, going above and beyond your original plans to earn your degree in Engineering. You spent an extra year of study, to attain a dual degree in not only Mechanical Engineering but Biomedical engineering. Today we celebrate you for achieving this goal.
We love you Hilary!
Don’t let anyone look down on you because you are young, but set an example for the believers in speech, in conduct, in love, in faith and in purity. (1 Timothy 4:12)

Congratulations! It doesn't seem possible that it has been five years since the 18th birthday post. Good for you, Hillary!
