A tale of two new students

So we took our daughter Sammy to visit Murray State in SW Kentucky on Monday. I think she had decided she wasn't going to like the visit because she had really liked Drury in Springfield MO. After a tour of campus, meeting with the councelors and a professor she got back in the car and said "oh snap". What she meant was that she liked the campus and now she had to make a decision between the two. She is now doing the plus/minus thing and trying to determine where she wants to go.

When Judy and I left Wednesday morning Sammy said to me "have a safe trip and don't like it (Southern Seminary) too much because it's the farthest one away". So Judy and I drove 500 miles through rain and mountains to get to Columbia SC sometime in the late afternoon. After getting the key to our apartment for the night and visiting the school on Thursday morning I had to say the same thing that Sammy did. I said "oh snap" but not for the same reasons. I discovered that this is the place I was supposed to go to seminary. My problem was that I now had to tell Sammy that this is the college I wanted to attend.
