The Bragging Thread

Excellent acceptances!! With those under your belt, anything else will be gravy. It sounds like you’ll have a plethora of good options to choose from.

That’s awesome! The Geffen is a wonderful theater - seen lots of shows there. It only gets better from there. May she break many legs!

He came back for more…If you watch the Grammys on Sunday night - the opening outfit that Bruno Mars wears is from my D - he first wore 2 of hers at a concert a couple of weeks ago. Rumor has it that Sunday’s might go in the Grammy Museum after -

I told her that my prediction is that by 2025 it will be her name showing rather than her employer - she laughed and then said “that’s seems doable”

You don’t have to be a parent to post on the bragging thread! I’m the OP…and I say…it’s fine!

My sporty STEM-oriented kid waited to take her required art classes until senior year. (It is her only non-AP class this year.)

Welp, out of all her students, the art teacher selected one of my kid’s pieces to submit to the state art show and competition and she won an award and a $25,000 scholarship to an art school! :smile:

Once an overachiever, always an overachiever, I guess.

My son got into his first choice school ED, going against the advice of his advisor (who said it was such a reach that it was a waste of an ED).

My 14 month old granddaughter knows all of her food by name. If you say, “why don’t you have some broccoli,” she’ll pick it up to eat. She’ll do the same for carrots, chicken, squash. I say she is heading to Harvard.

My son got hired by a company he wanted to work for, with a salary higher than I ever imagined. He is incredibly happy. Best part is that instead of being isolated, working from home, he gets to work from the office, actually having face to face interaction instead of just via computer screen. Who would have thought we’d be so excited about that?
