The University of Arkansas has been home to several members of our family and continues to be. Our daughters and sons-in-law have all traversed those hallowed halls and occupied dorm rooms on campus. Our grandson, John Robinson, got his college degree and after he and Ashley married, he is now a Graphic/Structural Designer for Saatchi & Saatchi X, Inc. at their worldwide headquarters in Springdale.
Next, it was time for our granddaughter, Christen, to walk at the U of A
and receive her degree in Early Childhood Development. She is now a
Family Advocate for EOA of Washington County while working on her
masters. Her husband, Malachi Million, just finished the first year of
his masters in music, while also teaching at the U of A. He and
Christen should both have completed their master's degrees this time
next year and will be off to college again for Malachi to get his
doctorate.
Our second grandson, Joel Robinson, has completed his freshman year back in Razorback Land studying marketing while working for UA Production, and the procession continues. We feel sure that our youngest granddaughter, Genna Grace, will follow the family tradition year after next at the U of A provided, of course, another college doesn't come vying for her musical talent.
Our oldest granddaughter, Catelyn, decided to truckle off to TCU to get her degree and find her future husband, Luke Devlin, also a TCU graduate and now a high school English teacher. She finished her masters at the University of Texas; is a social worker at CC of Ft. Worth and teaches a class at TCU. They are now awaiting the birth of their son.
Solomon wrote, “Of making many books there is no end, and much study wearies the body” (Ecclesiastes 12:12). Any student who has pulled an all-nighter cramming for a test can verify that . But, Solomon also said "How does a man become wise? The first step is to trust and reverence the Lord! Only fools refuse to be taught. Listen to your father and mother. What you learn from them will stand you in good stead; it will gain you many honors." Proverbs 1:7-9 (TLB)
God has blessed us immensely with a wonderful family that believes in education and want to better themselves in the career paths they have chosen. But, more importantly, they all believe, like Solomon, the first step in becoming wise is to trust and reverence the Lord. We are so thankful that they are all Christian men and women who live out their lives on campuses and in their respective careers.
