Shameless brag on an oby.

<p>When we moved him in to his new apartment he was headed for a summer course and also looking for work.  Sadly, nothing came of the work side, but he's studied all summer and took a big step (for him) of going on a camping bike trip all alone.  He had a blast, wants to do it again, and came home to an email from the university:</p>
<p> </p>
<p>He has two scholarships covering a big chunk of this year's tuition.  The first is a President's scholarship for academic achievement, and the second is a donor based award for having the highest standing in first year French. </p>

<p>I keep remembering that the genes for intelligence are from the mom's side, and I'm humbled.  But dayum I'm proud for him.</p>
