Oh man. Best code names EVER! I hope Carrie gets her bid to Tums!

ahh
 

I don't want to wait anymore!!:p

aww... I was hoping she'd put Alka Seltzer first! But here's hoping she gets a bid and loves her new sisterhood!

Bid day:
I carried my cell phone in my pocket all afternoon, waiting to hear from Carrie.
Finally, a text message!
Carrie was a new member of…..

TUMS…

otherwise known as

Kappa Alpha Theta!

I was especially thrilled, because 29 years before (at the archrival school,) I had also pledged Theta!!

Carrie called later that night and explained that she had wanted to be a Theta all along, but had tried to talk herself out of it because she wanted to do her own thing. But in the end, she realized it honestly was her first choice, legacy or not. Since then, one of the most special moments we’ve shared was when I surprised her by participating in her initiation ceremony. Tears flowed all around (all together now, “Awww….”) and she didn't even puke once! ;)

awwwwwww what a wonderful story!

Congratulations to your daughter for finding her home in your home. :p

Congrats to both of you and Kappa Alpha Theta!

Congratulations to Carrie and Kappa Alpha Theta! How special for you to be able to share Theta with your daughter!

Yay for another Theta! Sending black and gold pansies her way!

What a great story. Thanks for posting.

Congrats to your daughter on joining Theta!!!!!

It's even more amazing that you are a Theta too!!!!

I know when I have daughters, it will be hard if/when they go through recruitment! I will want them to go through with an open mind to all the sororities, but I won't help but want her to go Theta!

Fantastic code names, wonderful story, great outcome!

How wonderful that you have a Theta sister/daughter!! Thanks so much for sharing it. I loved reading it.

Congrats to your daughter on Theta!! She's really lucky to be a part of such a great organization.

Congratulations!!!! What an awesome story! And how special that you got to participate in her initiation! My sister was at my initiation so I definitely know about the tears flowing! :-)

My heart soars with the Kites in the sky for another story ending in Kappa Alpha Theta!!!
