Mama done gots PAID!!!!!!!!!!

The kid pulled out a whopping THIRTY TWO!!!! He scored perfect in Science 36, almost perfect in Reading 35, ehh in Math at 28 (he hasn't taken calculus yet) and then English is whatever it would have to be for those to average at 32. (Please know that I do know that 28 in Math is not ehh, really. My kids are really bright and I have exceedingly high, almost absurd expectations.)

I was so excited and proud that I threw on clothes, drove to the highschool, pulled him out of class and said, "I have to tell you something. The ACT scores are in."

He said, "Oh man. What did I do"

I scream, "32 BABY!" When I told him that he scored perfect in Science... he just grinned at me, "Isn't that the highest you can get?"

However, I did misquote the scholarship levels in my earlier post...he is ONLY going to get full tuition and fees, for a mere $25,808. CHA CHING.

Now Momz can rest a bit easier about the coin, and start helping the kid get ready to live on his own, in 8 months.

Now that...that is a whole other story!

PS The kid in college accomplished this same feat two years ago, pre-blogging. She rocks too, just so you know.
