Personally

I am proud of both my children & my step children. They are all such nice "young people".

I am proud that I survived a divorce and emerged a stronger woman because of it.

I am proud that DH and I have made it through all of the above and our relationship is all the stronger for it.

Professionally

Nothing makes me prouder (and more tired) than my own little biz. I get to do what I love (paint and create) and get paid to do it. Plus, the feedback/positive reinforcement is better than any a boss could give.

Day job - lol I am proud that I can bring home a paycheck and that we can use it to pay off debt.

So, what are you proud of?

I am proud that I made it through some rough times when I was younger and some not great relationships and ended up happy, healthy and engaged to an amazing person!

I'm proud that I have made it through 4 long years at the University of Illinois and that I can finally see the end (even though it's not until December)!!

I'm proud of how I was when I was younger, through my teen years, and hope my future kids will be just as studious and non-troublemaking as I was, lol.

I'm proud that I made it through 5.5 years of college and got my computer science degree, even though I went through A LOT of stuff in those 5.5 years.

I'm proud that I've had the guts to start my own coordination business despite how horribly shy I normally am.

I'm proud that I've become an independent, strong woman.

I am proud I made it through college and got a job in the industry I wanted and to be doing something I love to do (Graphic Design).

I am proud to be a home owner at such a young age.

I am so proud to be marring my soul mate!

I'm proud of myself for never letting anyone pressure me into sex, drugs, or drinking. I'm proud of myself for waiting for FH.
I'm also proud of myself for keeping my job, even when i get stomach aches from not wanting to go in so bad. Money is money, and people in Michigan (especially.) can't be choosy. :D

I am pretty proud of the person I am today despite all I have been through.

I am proud to have a wonderful husband and a great future together.

Those two thing pretty much cover all the bases :D

I'm proud that I've stuck with my degree. It gets difficult and a lot of people switch to health because they don't have all of the same pre-med classes that nutrition does. Now, we'll see if I can actually pass those classes! ;)

I'm proud of the success I have had as an officer of a campus organization and that I was just elected for a second term.

I'm proud that I have become my own person regardless of the negativity from family and friends.

Most of all, I'm proud of the relationship that Chad and I have built. It's the most stable thing that I've had in my entire life. There's nothing I enjoy more than spending time with him.

i'm also proud to be my mom's daughter. she is like no joke the one person besides my grandma that i totally respect

I am proud that after being born and raised in Hawaii, I was able to move away from the comfort of my family and venture out on my own.

I am proud of my son, for making me see that life if full of surprises.

I am proud that I survived an abusive relationship with my sons father.

I am proud that my DH taught me how to be able to open up my heart again.

Oh yeah, I'm proud that I've earned two promotions in spite of the good ol' boys club where I work, and I'm proud of all of the hard work I've done in the last two weeks with 5 papers and 4 exams!

I'm proud of my son. He's only 19 months old, but he's really mellow and well-behaved, and seems to be very carefree. And he learns very quickly.

I'm also proud of FH. When we first met, he didn't have a job, he was living on a couch at his friend's house, he didn't have any goals or aspirations. But once we started dating, he went out, got a job, held it for a year, moved up to a Security Guard position, stayed there for a year, and now he works at a Locksmith and Alarm shop and is doing really well. He's an amazing Father and always puts Josiah first. He's accomplished a lot and has grown up a lot in the 4 years that we've been together.

I'm an extremly proud mom. Both of my boys are talented in both in school and in sports! Plus, so far they have manners, don't throw tantrums, and are so much fun. I love being a mom and I'm so proud of the children I have been blessed with!

I'm so proud of myself that I'm starting to go back to school this fall full time to get my degree as an RN. It's going to be a tough two years on all of us but I know we'll all get thru it!

I'm proud of how far I've come. I had a first horrible marriage, I was cheated on and trusted no one, it took me a long time to get where I am today. To love so much and to trust my husband like I now do. I'm so happy and proud to call Shawn my husband and to be the wife I've always wanted to be.

As most people, I've been thru a lot but I'm so proud of where I am today and I'm still growing and slowly becoming what I have always wanted to become as a person. I may still be a work in progress but I'm getting there and proud of it!

I'm proud of my family. Especially my brother for having cancer and handling so much better then I think I would. I am in general proud of them all, though, and I love for people to meet them because they are just so awesome.

I am proud that people think I will be a good mom.

I am proud that I was a "good kid" in that I never did drugs, got drunk, that saved myself to DH and have always been responsible-had a job all through high school along with sports, bought my own car when I was 17 and was a homeowner at 24.

I am proud that DH is becoming a more mature and kind person-when we first met he was so angry at his father, but he is getting over that and is beginning to be a more positive person, plus he finally found his place in the professional world and is so happy with his job.

I am proud that I learned to let someone else love me, instead of being in relationships where I was the only one loving. I am proud that I let go of the "bad boys" in my life to embrace the big heart of my FH.

I am proud that besides for the **** I work with, I still go there and hold my head up high, knowing that I only have 4 weeks left in that h*^% hole left!

I'm most proud of being diagnosed with cancer a year and a half ago and still being here today to say that! Lots of long, rough days of chemo and radiation, but though not cancer free yet I am alive and well and best of all, marrying my soul mate! I am proud of my FH for being the rock that he has been for me; he lost a sister to cancer over 5 years ago!

I'm am certainly proud of who I am and what made me the way that I am.

I'm proud of my parents for teaching me to never give up no matter how hard things get!
