@lovethebard Nice! Big Grinnell fans here.
@LoveTheBard – good luck on the Belk – seems like she’s gotta a good shot at it! Congrats on Grinnell! That’s some serious big MAC.
@CaucAsianDad what a wonderful wonderful story!
@socalmom007 I totally get it. We’ve left the 2 boys home alone for one night. We have a long weekend coming up next month and I’ve not yet decided what to do about it. I need to figure it out.
@LoveTheBard WOW! those are some seriously exciting developments! Congratulations
Congratulations @LoveTheBard !!!
Such great news and Big MAC rolling in indeed!
Congrats to @LoveTheBard ! Awesome news. How did she hear about it?
@LoveTheBard congrats on your D’s great news, and continued success.
@CaucAsianDad What a lovely story - I teared up with that one!
@LoveTheBard Congrats on semifinalist for Belk AND big MAC at Grinnell!!!
There is a big envelope from a college plus a swag package from CWRU sitting on the table. I really want to open them…
@LoveTheBard – Congrats!! Best calming and cool and luck wishes for the Belk!!
Thanks to all for the good wishes.
We’re all doing a bid ol’ happy dance today – turns out that D17 just made a triple play: she just found out that she was awarded a full-tuition Chancellor’s Scholarship at Vanderbilt!
@picklesarenice - She got an email from Grinnell today telling her to check the portal. This came on the heels of her being asked to upload a 100 word “Why Grinnell?” essay last week, and her responding to an email from a graduating senior that reached out to her.
@porcupine98 - Did you have a DC that went to Grinnell? We know an adult in academia that went there many moons about and loved his experience there, but have no more recent knowledge.
@mamaedefamilia - Congrats on the CWRU swag and remember that patience is a virtue, and all that…
We look forward to your good news!
wow – full tuition to Vanderbilt - @lovethebard – that’s awesome - I recall she has pretty amazing stats - any special hooks? She hitting lots of home runs!
@LoveTheBard full scholarship to Vanderbilt is a nice score. I was able to visit there a long time ago and I really liked it there. Lots of good choices for your D, she can’t go wrong.
D got the same scholarship at Vanderbilt as @LoveTheBard 's D. ! She said that makes her decision that much harder
She said she isn’t going to the special weekend for admitted students for Vandy because she has robotics regional. DH and I are like…"forget robotics! "
Congrats to Vanderbilt scholarhsip @SincererLove and @LoveTheBard . Did you receive an email?
@LoveTheBard @SincererLove Congrats to your children on the great news.
Mail @srk2017. D received an email last week saying she wasn’t selected as semifinalist for Ingram.
@LoveTheBard Wow!!! Vanderbilt is one of the loveliest campuses I’ve ever set foot on and a stellar place all around. Well done!
Congrats @SincererLove! The best part is that they don’t have any more hoops for our girls to jump through!
@SincererLove – awesome news - congrats to your D – I am with you - forget robotics, but my DS would likely react similar to your D!
In my excitement, I didn’t congratulate you @LoveTheBard!! Congratulations to the triple play or hat trick!! <:-P <:-P <:-P :))
Yes, no semifinalist progressing to finalist, so on and so forth.
