[QUOTE="svengandhi, post: 425679, member: 3493"] Thank you everyone. I am still so happy... The dean rolls his eyes every time I say that difficult child is bright - well, now it's not just me saying it. Susiestar - Wowsie on the NMF! You must be a genius and I don't say that lightly! difficult child won't go past commended because they require a matching GPA to advance but I don't care. He KNOWS how to study, he just doesn't believe in HW. The kids he tutors (in physics, math and business law) all made the Honor Roll, but he didn't... His reading is amazing - he just took a Kurt Vonnegut out of the library to read after his AP test tomorrow. Sadly, my local CC honors program won't look at him without an appeal because they don't count SAT, only GPA! Esther - The English word is BRAG! which is why I can come here but not say anything to people in in real life. ML - I truly hope so... Terry - Not quite opposite... As you can see, I can kvell and kvetch about him in the same post. Muttmeister - Congrats. You were a teacher, right? I would be thrilled if difficult child was to become a teacher, my daughter is studying education now... Baby boy says difficult child is the best math teacher he's ever had. Hounddog - Thank you. It's hard to live in the moment. Star - Yiddish and Latin (pig or regular?). I am on my 4th child studying Latin and I really love it. My language up through college was Hebrew, though, sadly, when I was in school, we were not taught to converse, so I can read and write and have a basic convo (Is this the temple? Are you a boy?) but I couldn't speak to Esther in the language of my ancestors. I would also like to hear about your grandmas... Again, everyone, thank you for letting me share a happy moment that I can't share in real life - even with H, who's dyslexic and claims he owed points on his SAT. [/QUOTE]
