He came home laughing
with the letter up.
Had to restrain myself
that I didn't fly into his arms.

I knew the right message right away.
He has a job!
But he doesn't like to cuddle
so I had to slap him on the shoulder.

It's fast now.
A job and his diploma year.
He'll get there,
he has it done.

So proud of him
and how he does it.
He has stamina
and more and more courage.
