We used to have a bragging thread, but evidently we haven't used it in a while! Soooo----

I've gotta' crow about TWO things!

First, DS had his SAT piano testing last week. This is his third year, and it's a 3 hour, 4 test, tough assessment. His teacher called when we got home and he had earned 95.5 out of 100! It wasn't quite as high as last year (99.5), but w/the harder level, we were very pleased. The biggest news, though, came yesterday. Each year, the top 2 in each level get to perform at an Honor's Recital. DS went last year (1st place), but we weren't sure if his scores were high enough this year. Yup, his teacher called yesterday -- and he's performing again this year! :-)

Second brag -- his school did the state standardized testing this fall. I honestly don't give two hoots how he scores on those; we always emphasize doing your best and not worrying about it. Well, the scores came back last week, and he got the top score in all 4 tests! The writing test, especially, was difficult. A school just south of us didn't have even one student with a top score, yet DS's school had 6 (w/3 of them in his class).

These are the things I gotta' remember when I want to bean the little bugger for crying, 3 minutes before leaving the house this morning, that he "forgot" about his homework!!!

What a cutie! So bright eyed and fun. Adorable. No wonder she likes the tram ride at Disney, she's just a little bitty girl.

I have to brag...my son, 21, (although still cute and adorable in mom's eyes), though not quite as cute as the ^ picture, just graduated cum laude from college and just got his first acceptance to medical school phd program.... :-)

Just wanted to brag about my daughter making the honor roll for second straight quater,i'm so proud of her,she did go from an A to a B in one subject,but how can I get upset about a B.

I was a little worried about her going into 6th grade and being able to handle the work and amount of homework they give but she's doing great and adjusting fine.

Yay, Mictay's DD! :-)

I was coming to brag about my 6th grader, too. He's had all A's this year, and he just finished his Student Achievement Testing in piano and earned 95.5 out of 100 points over 4 tests. He was .25 points from being in the honor's recital for the fourth year in a row (competing against students from at least 20 different music teachers), but he got the highest performance score (71.5 out of 72) from all of the students from his piano teacher. :-) He's been taking guitar lessons and had a sax solo in his last concert, so we're quite proud of our little musician. :-)
