Hi all-
Through a switching of 'pay as you go cell phones'...my younger daughter kept getting a phone call from her brother's old cell number...
The university finally called here (the rotc captain)...and my son has a three year scolarship!!
WOW!
Now...I am waiting for HIS phone call to me (having given the capt his new cell #)...
It has been 2 hours now...HOW can I act surprised????
I SO want to call him...but cannot without giving away "I" know...
Suggestions?
Thanx

JUST got off the phone with him...
He called...and I mentioned a piece of mail that came (fictitious)...
Then HE told me!!
I am sniveling...
And actually his first words were about the '529' account...and sliding $$ to his sibs...
Honestly...does it get any better??
What a wonderful young man...
***sniffling AND boo hoo hoo ing***
Congratulations! What wonderful news! Sounds like you've raised a wonderful young man. Kudos!
Yay! Such good news!
My son who is a sophomore away at school is impressed by the ROTC kids in his dorm. Says they are out running 5 miles every morning 'bout the time the rest of the kids go to bed, "Crazy Bastards!"
Gonna be a Happy Night at your house tonight! Guess you'll have to wait a little longer.
Congratulations!
:)
Try to wrap up the excitement and let it all explode as surprise? Congrats!
Sit on your hands, dear!
Other than that, congratulations, Mama! SO happy for you and your son!
Dawn
CONGRATULATIONS!!!
This is GREAT news!!! I read your SWH already so I know how it turned out!!! Sounds like you did GREAT!!!
Way to go! You should be so proud! He will get a great education and lots of discipline for FREE! And, he'll have a job when he graduates! My husband graduated from West Point and had a 5 year commitment to the Army. We've been in almost 14 years now...it's been a great life for our family!
What a wonderful opportunity, congrats to both of you.
