Couldn’t be more proud of my daughter today. She just finished her two year registered veterinary tech program . Last Friday she wrapped up her six week practicum at a local clinic 40 minutes away. Even that in itself was a blessing because instead of living away from home for six weeks on no pay, she was able to do her practicum locally and just make the drive daily.
The owner of the clinic happened to be one of my longest repeat customers who I’ve had nothing but great dealings with over the years.  I put a bug in her ear all the way back last October when I did a job for her at their ranch, that my daughter would be looking for a practicum opportunity. 
Today, after two rounds of interviews, she just landed a spot as an RVT at a clinic only five minutes from our house! The biggest domestic and farm clinic in our community.
It’s hard to believe that throughout the two-year program, she wanted to quit so many times, and ended up saving herself from failing out of the program with a rewrite following her bike accident in the spring.
It’s only been by hard work, faith and my wife’s constant encouragement while I’ve been largely working that she made it, and got bursaries and scholarships that paid for nearly half of the program based on my wife applying for them with her.
So good to see a young person achieve some early success rather than immediate heartbreak upon leaving school.
God is good.  #grownostr
