But more importantly than the anonymous brag, congrats to everyone who put 18 or more years of hard work in and now gets to see their kids dreams come true. Impressive results, and you should be so proud of your kids. And yourselves. Because every successful kid has a parent who has loved and supported them.
And equally huge congrats to kids who are going to less “name brand schools”. Every kid needs something different, and happy successful kids come out NOVA and CNU and JMU and Radford (where our amazing former babysitter was just accepted. She’ll go far in life).
Anyway, putting happy thoughts for you all into the universe— and hoping it helps my DCs when they go through this in 2 & 4 years.
Bless you for such an uplifting, positive post! I vowed to stay off of DCUM in 2018, because I sometimes get discouraged as a parent with all the snobbery, one-upmanship on this site. But your post made up for all the negativity. Happy new year and good luck to your kids in the years to come. If they have your outlook on life, they will do just fine!
