week long boot camp

This has been Ryan and me the last 8 months or so as we have struggled to know how to best help Jordan get through high school. It has been a lesson in patience, understanding, hard work, focus, and unconditional love for us.

(It has also been many lessons in Stats, Numbers, Math, English, and Art History!)

Lucky for Jord, he has an amazing father who would go to any extreme to ensure he succeeds and that he has as many options open for his future as possible. For those of you who are parents, I am sure you completely understand. I, on the other hand, as a side liner just trying to be a support and cheerleader, do not fully comprehend or feel that love. Nonetheless, I do love him. I am so grateful to have the chance to experience "parenting" from this end, as it is not only good life lessons for me, but also gives me such a greater appreciation for my husband; a greater respect for the role of parent. Here are all the packets of homework to fulfill his required credits. Boot camp began last Wednesday...and the homework and packet part is complete TODAY! What a feat! It was huge. Like 12-15 hours a day of reading, studying, comprehending, writing, and brain frying huge!

Soon he will have one of these and his life can really begin! We are so proud of you Jord and can't wait to see your path of opportunity unfold for you.

Now, go take those two tests and send us a photo of you with your diploma!!!
