Ok totally NOT political but a mommy brag..
My son has been in special education the last few years and this year he is in a "regular" class and is being tested right along with the other kids.. he still gets a lot of special help PT and OT but his grades are right along with other kids... but today he got his first report card this year and he got HONOR ROLL!!
I never got honor roll my whole schooling and he did.. I am so proud right now :) true its 1st grade but what they have to learn in 1st grade now is amazing and if you knew what he has had to work thru it is amazing.. so nothing political but a good ol' fashion mommy brag :)

7. I know how you feel. I remember feeling
so proud whenever a child of mine received an honor at school. I would live two weeks on that feeling and could have gone another two weeks.

11. Well done mom & son!!!!
I'm sure your son's success rightfully depends upon your watchful, loving, guiding hand and eye....and his response to knowing that he's being loved and nourished by you (and dad?).

Congratulations on your success! And it's nice to hear - it can encourage us all to be the 'best that we can be', which is HUGELY better than what 'other people' would like us to believe about ourselves.

Again, Congratulations! Brag away! :applause:
