Jeff, congratulations to your son and to you as well - our youngest daughter and mom is off this morning to UNCG for open house - she has been excepted there and she hasn't even looked at another college - All I can say is that she better get a lot of scholarships and alot of help from the state because this poor old dad can't afford to send her

outstanding~
Bear, my youngest was accepted to every school she applied to (she just HAD to know...) She chose Mars Hill and loved her first year, wasted her second (change in professors AND she met (...:HIM:...) Went to UNCG for the next three years (with ...:HIM:... ) and is now married, and in her second year of teaching.
She was always so dang smart (didn't get it from me) and has spent her life making MOSTLY good decisions. She was the one in school that her friends came to with problems seeking advice. Can't say I've not run things across her screen to get her input myself
I was fortunate as well. Both of mine made MOSTLY good decisions through their lives. Yes a few dang its along the way, but...
My best measure of how they were doing was to meet and watch their friends and then others their age. Guess whatever we did wasn't all wrong!

Be proud papa! The apple doesn't fall far from the tree.

Congratulations should go to your son AND his parents, Jeff. You should be proud. Not only of him but the great job you and LOYL have done.
You should be very proud of all your children and yourselves!
