The Master of Business

Anyone who knew Adam during his time at ACU (or Sabino or Coppell High School or even Mary Immaculate) probably fell out of their chair when they heard that he was voluntarily going back to school.

No?  It was just me?

There is absolutely no way that I can put into words how proud I am of his accomplishments.  He was accepted to an MBA program in a foreign country only weeks after arriving and while still searching for a house for us to live in.  He wrote essays for scholarship applications which helped us pay for the degree without having to take out student loans.  He rode his bicycle 4 miles each way on a daily basis (in the UK wind, rain & blistering cold weather) to go to class.  He spent countless hours at the library, in study groups, reading, researching and revising.  He sacrificed more hours of sleep than I can count to ensure he was prepared for the next lecture, assignment or exam.  He approached his dissertation internship with professionalism, polish, and a bit of humor – we are British now, after all.  When all of this was said & done, he graduated summa cum laude.  And I think he is amazing.

Enjoy some of my favorite pictures of the day.
