Congrats to the Graduate! (And her Mom;)

Yesterday an older lady in our church, whom we all affectionately call "Grandma Ruth", came over to our home and got Elise out of bed so that she could test her to see if she had enough credits to apply for a high school diploma. So the test began with Elise hoping that her mind would wake up enough to not completely humiliate herself and flunk home school high school;)
You need 21 credits to be eligible, and out of the two, I think that Mom was the more worried since she was in a way being tested. But both came through with flying colors as Grandma Ruth stopped asking questions when they got to 26 credits, saying "We could probably get up to 40 if we kept looking;)"


So congratulations to the graduate the first of us siblings to get a diploma (and no the rest of us didn't drop out, we just didn't have Grandma Ruth;)
