Bear has got an interview with Oxford University! I cannot tell you how proud DH and I are. It's been all him. He's been the one studying and working hard to get there. Now all he needs to do is get past the interview.
I'll keep posting snippets about bear, but I'm going to try and cut back and avoid some details. Bear is going out into the wide, wide world and I don't want anything that I do affecting him in any way. He may be happy to share his daft mother with others, but he may prefer to be more anonymous. I've tried to be respectful about what I post, but it may not be comfortable for him in later years. It will be hard, because there's not much else going on in my life. I'm just going to have to make sure that I have other news.
And speaking of other news, I've set up a folder to try and keep me on track. I got a cheap one from the supermarket and added some stickers.
Hugs and good health to all.
Good luck Bear. I’ve been following your blog for years, I think bear was about 2 when you started and I remember you saying bear was slow to talk and you were worried about him! Now he’s got an interview to Oxford! Amazing!
ReplyDeleteI was so worried when he was little, but it was just bear being himself as hard as he could and taking his own path. I'm so proud of him - thank you for reminding me of that amazing journey and thank you for being here.
DeleteWow what great news! Congratulations to Bear and to both of you. Hope the interview goes well.
ReplyDeleteThank you!
DeleteOh, I do hope the interview goes well for bear! Wishing him all the best!
ReplyDeleteI like your folder! My daughter got me another planner for the new year and I am determined to make good use of it.
Thank you! I adore planners
DeleteGreat news, you must be very proud.
ReplyDeleteI'm so proud that I could just float away! Thank you!
DeleteHow wonderful! Oxford University!! Top of the line! My son-in-law won a Gates scholarship to Cambridge to do his doctorate. So their second child was born in England, and I got to go over and help out for 3 weeks with the older child. It was a great time! I'm glad that you got your new fridge in, complete with proper opening door, and door "decorations" too! I hope you found your keys....Best Wishes for the Holidays!
ReplyDeleteYour son-in-law must have worked so hard for that opportunity, that's amazing. I hope that England was welcoming to you as you are an amazing and wonderful person!
