Got a call today from my 13 yr. old, seems she got a letter from Duke University. They have a program that searches for gifted and talented children all over America and they offer courses,workshops, and resources for them. They are offering to give her the ACT test because she scored so high on the TAKS test. Needless to say, I am MOST impressed with my daughter and how frikkin smart she is and her dedication to her education. The test won't be until after the Christmas holidays so I have plenty of time to prepare myself for having a teenager that is smarter than I am in the house. This is just too cool, I was smiling from ear to ear when she was reading the letter to me, I have big hopes for her as she gets older and starts to figure out what she wants to do with her life. She is an awesome kid, I just wish I could do more for her right now. I know one thing for sure, no matter WHAT it takes, she IS going to college. I don't care what she wants to study, as long as she lives up to her potential I will be the happiest mom on the planet. I love you DayDay !!!
