...So-I guess yer thinking Alli is only about having fun...
...with all the music concerts she goes to....all the involvement she has with the contests (and winning them!!!)...all the music fun she has with her friends! :)
Oh! For sure, having fun is a big part of what makes up 'Alli' but there's sooo much more than that!
Alli was in gifted classes all through her school years!
In high school she has been in the IB program- read about it here!
She will graduate high school with the equivalent of one year of college credits! She will get full college tuition scholarships!
Last week she got an unexpected and unrequested -additional- amount of over $5,000.00! :)
She plans to attend school in Orlando ... college - and on into nursing school!
Yep! Alli has a lot to smile about!
SO DO I! :)
If I could only have one granddaughter....how COOL it is and how lucky I am that it's my Allison!
Love,
Junie

Alli is truly special, and nothing you write about her surprises me! You're so blessed just as I am to have a spectacular granddaughter. And, someday maybe you'll know the joy of being a great-grandmother but we won't push it. hahaha Of course, though, I'm a VERY young one. :)
ReplyDeleteYay for Alli and her Grandma!!
ReplyDeleteCongrats to Alli. As an AP teacher, I know how hard it is to keep up with all the work, plus pass the AP exams. And, IB exams are even harder.
ReplyDeleteWow!
You have a right to be proud of that girl!!
ReplyDeleteA loving Grandma you are Junie!
ReplyDeleteSays something that we both posted Granddaughters today!
Alli is amazing, and you are the sweetest grandmother, Junie! You are lucky to have Alli, and she sure is lucky to have you too! :)
ReplyDeleteSally,
ReplyDeleteThanks!
Yes, our 'Grands' are all precious-I'm sure the 'Great-grands' are too! My mom always said there was no difference in the love felt for all of them-I believe it was true for her and I think it will be for me! I'm a LOT like my mom-and that is a GOOD thing! :)
Yes , you are young to have great grandkids already- but LUCKY! I see no signs of any in my near future-although I was a young mom-at 18 and a young grandma -at 42!
Sally, I was happy to know you had a good trip and visit with your folks at Thanksgiving!
Hugs))

Carletta,
Thanks, guys and gals, for visiting!
Yes- I'm very proud of my granddaughter- and my boys too!
Aw, thanks Ginga. :)
ReplyDeleteLove you!
Congrats to Alli on her scholarships!!!!
ReplyDeleteI wish Courtney had a full scholarship at her college.
She got a good scholarship, but not a full one, so we are having to dole out the dough.
:-)
Alli,
ReplyDelete:) you are so welcome- and you know how proud of you we are and how much we love you!

JD,
ReplyDeleteThanks.
Yes- it's very good Alli will have the means of getting her education completed! And I'm glad she has a plan all worked out of what she wants to do!
Junie...you have a lot to be proud of, and Allison should be proud of her accomplishments. She's achieved a lot in her few years.
ReplyDeleteWay to go Alli
