One more thing to share – not stamping related – but about Kyle (my 18 year old). I just got this email from the college – we knew he had earned the award they called at the end of the semester but we hadn’t seen it in writing yet. I thought I would share – we are very proud of him!
Dear JEHP students and parents,
Our fall grade statistices are in, and we thought you would be interested in the results. JEHP students did exceptionally well in their classes:
- The average GPA was a 3.4, in an average of 10.5 credit hours.
- 37 students (30%) earned a 4.0 in their KSU coursework, including 27 students taking 9 or more credit hours, who will be named to the President’s List.
- An additional 31 students earned a GPA between 3.5 – 3.99, including 23 taking 9 credits or more who will be named to the Dean’s List.
- 54% of JEHP students earned a 3.5 or higher. 106 of 124 students earned a 3.0 or higher.
- 39% of students enrolled in KSU classes full-time, taking four or five classes at KSU.
Congratulations to all of you for your success in your first semester of college work!
Each year, we select a JEHP student as the recipient of the Outstanding JEHP Student Award. The award is determined by the highest GPA in the largest number of credit hours and honors classes. The recipient is honored along with the top senior from every academic major on campus at the University Scholars Awards Ceremony, which will take place in April. Please join me in congratulating Kyle Davis of Etowah High School as this year’s award recipient. Bravo, Kyle, and kudos to all our JEHP students on a successful fall term. I know you make your families and your high schools very proud.

I’m a proud mom – can you tell!
Wow! Monika, that is fantastic! You must be so proud!
Huge congratulations to Kyle!
Monika,
I am just now reading this post as I came to your site from the SU! Community page to check out some of your beautiful projects more closely. Thank you for sharing so many lovely items. In addition, I want to congratulate you and Kyle for this wonderful award. I know it was the result of hard work when goofing off would have been easier, and well…more fun! Being a parent is the most difficult job in the world, but also the most rewarding in so many ways. Best wishes to Kyle as he moves into the next phase of his life…may he always find joy in learning. It appears that he has seen that trait in you as you stretch yourself and your creativity in stamping. Have a great 2010!
