[QUOTE="TerryJ2, post: 278256, member: 3419"] Thanks, Suz. Ooohhh, I remember those days, Vickie! Totoro, you certainly made it through with-flying colors. Bravo! She sounds adorable. But, my, does she take life seriously! Kathie, wow, impressive! Congrats! Aw, Everywoman, that is wonderful. He sounds like a sincere kid. Valerie, well done! That is awesome for difficult child--to go from GED to B average and scholarship! Congrats on your easy child, as well. I'd be stressed out under those circumstances, too! My easy child graduated yesterday. She had a B average, and won an award the other night for her Sr Project on her trip to the orphanage in Honduras. Several board members and faculty had kids graduate, so they were able to give their kids their diplomas. It was really neat. The student speech was cute and funny and sweet all at once. The guest speaker was a Hollywood producer who graduated from easy child's school yrs ago, with-a 2.2 average, and never made it through college. Didn't know what he wanted to do, had a zillion odd jobs, and finally, in his 30s, hit on something he loved and was good at. He told students to never give up. Rather than give me hope for easy child, it gave me hope for difficult child! Awesome. difficult child finally got accepted into the school I liked (she was wait listed) but she doesn't want to go. I am very disappointed on several counts. But she is dead set on the small school she chose and since she's so social, she'll be happier there, anyway. We drive out Fri night to stay at a hotel, and then spend all day Sat at Orientation. difficult child made it through 5th grade--barely--and has a ceremony Wed. [/QUOTE]
