Yup . . . this is our "little" girl.She's 24 years old and thedirector of the academic center at USMMA. After she graduated with the highest GPA ever for a woman at a military academy she turns around and become the youngest dean at any tier one school ever!
Put that together with her navy rank, and she still manages to be a "little girl" . . . wants an ice cream bar and cotten candy machine at her wedding.
We're just a bit proud of her.
