when you get a letter home in your child's backpack addressed "to the parents of..."
the immediate thought (for me, anyway) is, "uh oh. what did you do?"
however this letter from the school that was address to "the parents of aiden clarkson" had a nice, little, unexpected surprise inside. (not that we don't all think our kids are all little geniuses)
"your child has been referred for possible placement in the clear creek independent school district's gifted program."
gifted program??? is this where she will learn how to wrap presents? or possibly learn the art of gift giving?
wink wink
sure...i'll fill out your forms and permission slips!!
in my best southern drawl: hay dar pa...looksy likes we have ourselves a bonafide inti-lectul!!
we are proud of you aiden annee-grace. and all of the "giftedness" that God has blessed all four of you special, special lovies with in different and unique ways. may you all feel celebrated for your individual uniqueness.

Congrats to Aiden!!!! She must have gotten that "bonafide intellectual" status from her mother's mother (ha,ha). Oh, that's right, her mother's mother just gives IQ tests, not takes them---thank goodness!! She can't take credit for this.
