During all of those Dr. appointments and tests Braedyn had AIG testing. They test for that at the 3rd grade level. It's the gifted program~is what it stands for but I just tell him it is because those students need to be more challenged.
I was a little concerned since he was getting those headaches that week and would have to stay focused on the testing. I had actually asked the teacher about it and she said if he needed, he could retake it at a different time.
Well, he did not to retake it! He got in the car so excited on friday after school and he told me he did so good on his AIG's that he is going to the AIG teacher now for Math. I was so proud of him, I almost got a tear in my eye when I told him I was proud of him and he said, "I am proud of myself too." It was a great day and such a self-esteem booster for him because he gets so down on himself sometimes. He is hard on himself when it comes to his school work.
Way to go buddy! You still amaze me everyday!
I know what that's like.... as the oldest child, I took myself WAY too seriously. I was also in the gifted program - we called it GEE. It challenged me, gave me fun opportunities, and also gave me some of my best friends. I pray it will be as amazing for B! He's so special and lucky to have you for a mom!
