I just got an email from the gals at Upward Bound Math and Science at the University of Northern Iowa... he is in their program there and spends the summer at the University taking classes. Anywho, he was working on a science fair project all fall with gold nanoparticles ( no, I have no clue either..lol!) He was growing bacteria on them or something.. yes I support my son in his quest do discover the cure for cancer but, his IQ was over 140 in 2nd grade.. give me a break!  His  paper was chosen by UBMS to be sent on to the Iowa Junior Science and Humanities Symposium! If he makes the cut to the final 16 presenters for the state, he has a great chance at scholarships! I am so thrilled for him to get this far on his first chance! How cool for him! He is madly typing away on the other computer now that his OCD has taken over and he is freaking out going....... oh god, I have to fix my typos!!!!!!! They can't send it that way.............lol!

I'm just busting with pride!

YAY Dustin! You rock!!!!!!!!!! Even with your goofy blue hair..........lol! I love my boy!
