Bragging on my Kids

I figure if Jim can I can. :-) I have a daughter that graduated over 3 years ago. Spent two good years at a company, good pay, company vehicle, commission on sales , big bonuses, everyone did their job and got along, as she said "a great family". She was a determined 22 year old running her part. Then the company merged with the other industry leader in the field. Everything changed, micro managing, bonus reduction, etc. Half the people were missing in the next Christmas party pictures. She decided to go back to school and become an Orthodontist. She is in the process of getting 3 terms of classes she will need to get into Dental school. I received an email from her telling me after several interviews she was chosen for a prestigious program and met with the president of the university. Then she added, "I also had a physics exam on Wednesday. Wednesday evening the prof sent out an email saying it was a massacre, (avg was 52, lowest grade was a 9) and that it would be eligible for test corrections for partial credit. Freaking out I checked my grade, I got a 95, highest grade in the class. :)" Just a proud daddy
