Princess One is happily married. She
worked for the state helping foster children move into adult living between
ages 19 and 21. She helps them find jobs, get training, apartments etc. It is a
stressful job but it kept her busy while her husband finished his master’s degree
in Civil Engineering with a concentration in water systems. The condo they
lived in was sold so they moved into a small rental until he graduated in
December the week before Christmas. They moved the week of Christmas for him to
take a job in a city five hours drive from our home but are still within the
state. She finished working for the state a few weeks after their move and was
due for their first child February 8. I always thought her due date was the 7th
and their first Princess came on the seventh after a long labor but both mother
and baby are doing fine and Dad was SUPER with both and is helping out lots
even though he is still getting used to his new job and their new apartment. I
went for a week to help them out and LOVED every minute with their beautiful
princess and mine. She was 7lbs 13 oz and 20 inches long. She has lots of dark
hair and looks just like her mother. She is a HUGE blessing in our lives. 
Princess Two is 23 and is working at a college
transferring transcripts. She lives in a house with a girl from our town and is
having fun living in a college town. There are two major universities within
miles of her house and they keep active with house parties and match making
amongst their friends. She sells things online for some spare cash and works
often in the temple for our faith. She is working on genealogy and has enjoyed
finding things on both sides of her family lines. She is dating often and still
isn’t sure what to do when she “grows up” having graduated college years ago
and since her surgery last year at Thanksgiving, her health has continued to
improve and has no lasting issues so we are very grateful that she was able to
have the surgery to remove her gallbladder. 
Princess Three is 19 and finishing up her associate’s degree in the next few
months. She was asked to be the Vice President of her ambassadors at the
college she attends which gave her $1,000 on top of free rent and she has an
academic scholarship which she is maintaining as well as working in the
business office. She is VERY busy and we don’t often see her but I have tried
to get back into visiting her once a week for lunch as I have missed that this
past year. She is social and active and has a boyfriend whom we met for the
first time this week. She just applied to be an ambassador for a 4 year college
to continue in her studies for her bachelor’s degree. She made it through the
first round and has just finished up the second round. We hope to find out soon
if she is selected. She still isn’t sure what she wants to major in but has
done well and maintained her grades so she will attend on scholarship there as
well. It is about 6 hours away but we have family in that area so I am sure she
will enjoy moving on there.
To be continued....
