    I know I can brag my to my heart's content here and you won't judge me. I am just sooooo excited to see my 9-year-old's test score on the SCAT (to apply to the JHU-CTY summer program/online courses).

    He got in the 98 percentile on Verbal and 99 percentile on Quantitative. That is really really good, right?!

    It's nice to be validated about his intelligence with his awesome scores!

    I can't post it on Facebook because he didn't win a wrestling match, star in a school play or look super cute. It's just not acceptable to post intelligence brags there or to tell anyone but the grandparents.

    Thanks for listening. I am a super proud and excited mama!! My son is 2E (ADHD) so this is even more exciting because he has so many difficulties and it's wonderful to focus on the positive!

    Stephanie :-)
