If it was only hereditary - My Daughter's success

Its not often that I think that my Daughter is smart - given that she is Ditzy around the house and more than occasionally comes out with the most interesting pearls of wisdom resulting in me crying from laughing, shaking my head in wonder.

Well today i missed the school presentation of a few awards to her - i am trying to finish up work so i can enjoy my holidays that start on Friday where normally i would have been there. Anyway - I am a proud dad - sometime this year she had a brain transplant i am sure. She ended up with 7 first in subject awards and then took out the year 9 Best in year award.

She must have got the smarts from her mum (her mum took all the photos)

Fantastic news Dave!

Her future looks rosey

Just think of all the great career options that will be open to her to move to the top in whatever field she chooses
Then she will be rich and buy you all the goodies you want

Well done on you, your wife, and most of all, Stephanie.

Good for her. My boy's out of his misery as well. Just got his HSC results and it looks like he's making it to UTS pending availability and ATAR results tomorrow.
