Proud Mommy Moment

Reactions: 
Yesterday in the mail were Dylan's grades, STRAIGHT A's!!!!!!!!!!

All year long he's had 5 A's and a B+; one semester the B+ was Math; one semester the B+ was Social Studies; he could never get it all quite coordinated, until now.

The kid is amazing, I tell you. This is all so effortless for him. I was a B/C student and I had to work for it. Sure, I could have worked harder and done better, but Dylan is naturally smart and it baffles me. I swear that kid was switched at the hospital or something, how did he come from Joel and I?

When we got the grades, we were congratulating him. Next thing I know Maddie is outside pouting because "you love Dylan more than me." When we tried to tell her she's wrong that we love them both the same she got mad and said we were "just like Matilda's parents." Note to self: She can't watch that movie anymore.

We're still proud of Dylan, even if Maddie isn't. She had her moment in the sun. She just can't remember it.
