Just want to let you know that my daughter will graduate in May and was accepted at two universities...no questions asked about her transcript. One also accepted her into their honors program.

The private school that was our first choice not only admitted her "with distinction" but they also handed her a $26,000 academic scholarship.

It's nice to know that someone out there understands that we're not just hanging out in our jammies eating bon bons all day. :)

And...our prayer was that God would open wide the door of the school for her. Any tuition is way out of our reach but the private school cost was really out of reach. Not only did she get the scholarship there, but the federal and state grants that she qualifies for will pay the remainder of the tuition plus her books.

God is so very good to us!
