Congratulations to everybody!
Got no problem being proud of our son. He leaves for college next week and we become empty nesters.
What a year he had. Homecoming King. Outstanding Senior male student -- school and district level. National Merit Scholar. Male leads in the last two school musicals. VP of student body. Student Council. National Honor Society officer. Honors Diploma receipent. Indivual Effort winner and main stage performer in Solo Vocal Performance at the International Thespian Festival (for the second time). Perfect scores in math on both the ACT and SAT. Top 1/2% of the national high school graduating class of 2002.
Accepted at every college he applied to and auditioned for. One of thirteen accepted in his department out of 900 who applied/auditioned. Accepted to the Honors College. Recruited to the National Scholars program at Oklahoma which is, for all intents and purposes, a full academic scholarship. (Actually, under the worst case senario, it could cost us $31 plus spending money and travel for his Freshman year, so I guess it's not a FULL ride -- and he's an out of state student)
I'd tell you about our older daughters, but John would run out of server memory.
Thanks, JAM, it's great to be proud of your kids, isn't it?
