I was an average student, but my kids seem to be above average scholastically(my mother even says so!). I'm happy for them.

Now, it's dinner time.

Bestest of vibes to DUers of all flavors!

1. Several possibilities...
Edited on Wed Jun-15-05 07:47 PM by I Have A Dream
1) You just didn't make full use of your abilities while in school, but you now inspire your children to their fullest potential.
2) You "mated" up.
3) The smart genes skipped a generation with you.

Now, my guess is that it's 1, because you're here at DU and we have really smart people here. :)
