My 12 year old DS, a 7th Grader, went in to a big high school and sat with a group of 11th graders and took the ACT today!!!
He was offered the opportunity thru the Duke Talent Search program because of his excellent Math scores.
He looked like a midget in the land of the giants waiting there with all these big high schoolers!!!
But he wasn't even nervous!!!
Whatever his score, I don't care, I'm just so proud of him for doing it!!!

DS, you are forever in my heart. Thank you for sharing your beautiful spirit with me. I will always try to live by the example you have set. I love you and miss you every day and am sorry you had to go so soon, it just doesn't seem fair.
