Ohhhh he's going to hate me for doing this! But as a mom, you'll do what you can for your children.

UPDATE!!! Caleb had an amazing first semester! He joined the skydiving club Made new friends! Lots of evenings on the volleyball courts outside his dorm, and completed his classes with As & Bs! Did not get excepted into the RA program, so housing is something we'll be tackling in summer‍♀️ And he has an amazing opportunity to start interning next year, if we can find a vehicle. Having never gone away to college myself, we're learning lots of new places money likes to pop up needed Thank you all TREMENDOUSLY to those who show up for him and sent him little gifts throughout his first semester!

As most of yall know, CALEB IS GOING TO CLEMSON! He got an early acceptance into the engineering program for the fall of 2025, we have a family friend that works for the school and told Caleb that this is a record year of applications and less than 8% of those get an acceptance letter, much less an early acceptance straight into the engineering program! He has worked his butt off and just found out that all his tuition was covered! So, now here we are, housing and all that other fun stuff which is almost as much as tuition. I have never been one to ask for help, but before we go the route of racking up student loans debt before he even starts, I know he has so many friends and family who love and want to help him succeed!

Hoping this is the only year, we'll have to do this. He already has plans to apply to be an RA next year to help cover his housing.

So y'all, if you feel lead to help, I thank you from the bottom of this mama heart! And if you can't, please share and just send some prayers as he's the first one that's going off to school! My mama heart isn't ready to think about that one yet!
