My daughter just received her notice from the National FFA Organization that her application was approved for her American FFA Degree. So we're planning a trip to Louisville, KY so she can receive her degree in person and Mom and Dad can watch in person and take pictures and, of course, shed a few happy tears.
Yippee! Hope you don't mind my bragging!
Congratulations!!!!!!She must be on cloud 9. Very happy for her.
Brag away! I think thats great you must be very proud of her.
Congratulations to her and you
N.J congrats to both you and your daughter.
Enjoy the trip. Before you know it they are grown up and gone.

Congratulations, Jewel and DD! What a proud time for your family!!!!!
Thanks for the congrats. Actually, FFA was changed from “Future Farmers of America” to the “National FFA Organization” to recognize the growth of agriculture and
agricultural education to include careers in the science,
business and technology of agriculture. There are now several chapters in urban areas across the US. The American FFA Degree is the highest degree of membership, which a member can attain, and only about one half of one percent of the total national membership of the organization attain this high honor. The application is quite extensive and requires many hours of work on a "proficiency" as well as hours committed to the organization. Her proficiency was her work in a diversified livestock entrepeneaurship. (In other works, lots of nagging, hair pulling, and worrying.)

Congrats,my wife was once an FFA Princess in minnesota,she says it was a lot of hard work but so much fun it was well worth it.
Congratulations! Please brag anytime you want. I always love to read posts sharing happy occasions.
Congratulations! Brag anytime you want - it's nice to hear the good things that youth can accomplish as opposed to the doom and gloom in the news.
Congratulations! There are few experiences greater than watching our children work toward and be recognized for their accomplishments. Way to go!
