Today, Rosalind Franklin University graduated many new medical doctors at the Chicago's Civic Opera House. Here is a picture I took from four rows behind the graduates as they stood at the end of the ceremony to take their Hippocratic Oath. You can see Jordan, three rows of graduates up, on the far right.

NOTE: For those of you unfamiliar with Rosalind Franklin, she is the doctor who worked very hard to unravel the "mysteries" of DNA. She was the first to capture it in a picture. Then, she died young at the age of 37. Several years ago, Chicago Medical School, Dr. Scholl's School of Podiatry, and other medical entities came together to form Rosalind Franklin University in her honor.

Afterwards, we celebrated Jordan's accomplishments with some picture taking...beginning with a very proud wife who deservedly earned her PhT degree at the same time (Putting Hubby Through)...Congratulations Jordan, Jacqueline, and Chloe...
Two Godly doctors, and a very blessed little Chloe...
Of course, I wanted a pic of the proud parents and our oldest son...
Then, Jacqueline's wonderful Godly parents, Bob and Sharlene Keesee...
Afterwards we headed in two taxis to Su Casa for .... you got it... mexican food...one way the Sikes' celebrate...Bob took this pic of all of us with Annie (Jacqueline's sister) and her fiancee, Dr. Jared Johnson, on the left...
Later we found ourselves walking down Michigan Avenue and ending up at Hershey's...measuring Chloe with a five pound Hershey's bar...
After a train ride home, naps, and leftovers for supper, we enjoyed a Steve Sikes' led devo as we praised God and celebrated Jordan with words and song... it was evident, as everyone shared that Jordan is A FRIEND OF GOD...
What a BLESSING it is to end a day knowing WHO is in control and to WHOM we owe our praise and thanksgiving for BLESSINGS and TRANSFORMATIONS...
