I’m impressed that you are so near to pressing the electronic buttons, crekson! Many are busy scrambling over December break (uh, including us, when it was our turn). I wish your DD good luck on the SSAT. I don’t know what schools your child is applying to, but the rest of her background sounds very good, and no doubt the jr BS placement office has given you good guidance. No one likes the long wait to March 10, but it is helpful to use that time to get to know the schools as well as you can. The time between acceptance and the need to commit to one school just flew by.

I reread your post on communication…adolescence is a poignant time, isn’t it? I hope that you are finding your child to be more talkative, but if not, you have plenty of company. I know lots of parents around here of day students who say ‘they never see their kid anymore’.
