" Yeah that's great, she'll be happy she loves being here with us. "
" You know she is welcolmed here any time."
" Yeah mom, I really hope I'll be accept to Yale with her."
" For sure, and even if you go to another school you'll get through it, you could travel on week end and on the holidays."
" You're right mom. Those cookies smells delicious. Did you made those Leah?"
" Yes but Mama helped me."
" Can I have some ?"
" You can have one or two but the others are for Mommy."
She took 2 cookies, gave a kiss to her mom and her sister. "Thank you I'll go to my room and chat with Ellie."
" I'll call you when dinner is ready ."
She was putting the cookies in a jar with Leah's help when Jason arrived super excited. " Mom you won't believe it."
" What is it Buddy."

" Oh my God , this is amazing I'm proud of you son. " She gave him a big hug.
" The only thing is that the training camp begins 3 weeks after graduation."
" Well you are going to go and be the best player of this team, your mom is going to be trilled."
" I hope so, I hope she won't cry too much when I'll leave."
" You know your uncle Jason, he was recruited by the same University, he was supposed to be their youngest quaterback in history. You are going to make us proud but him too."
" I didn't even know when I applied there."
