Kudos for Brandon

Brandon received a notification in the mail that he is on the Honor Roll for his Grade 10 year. He also received a Geography Award. This is great news for the entire family and especially for Brandon. This is the boy who at one time couldn't cope with school at all and had meltdowns every morning because he had to go.

This year Brandon is in Grade 11. He is taking math, english, a double period of cooking class in the second semester, horticulture, world history, gym and one more that I can' remember. Here's hoping that he does well again this year. I know he is looking forward to cooking, horticulture and world history.

This Grandma is PROUD!!!

    Well you have every right to be proud of Brandon, such a huge accomplishment for him:-) Isn't it unbelievable how far he's come, good for him!!! As Denise says, you can take some credit because you've been such a big influence in his life.

    I'm not sure what I'll be doing on Sunday because Claude will be here. He's been staying at mom's since her birthday but he'll stay here for a couple of days before I have to bring him to the airport. I'll let you know:-) xoxo

    Mary,

    Brandon is doing so well - yes, you should be proud of him! It's so uncommon to find kids who are into world history - tell him that I am cheering him on...:) That was my favorite class in school - but now it is American History. Cooking is also good - both of my sons are excellent cooks - although in different areas. Jason likes down home cooking while Joshua likes hispanic and greek....yea for me!
