We knew all weeked that the new list was coming out on Monday night. I got more and more nervous as we got closer. By Tuesday morning, I was popping the pepto bismal chewables-heartburn which I have only had one other time (at the end of my pregnancy). There was no guarantee we would even receive a referral off the list, but we were hopeful. Tuesday morning I took Bethany to church for mother's morning out, nervously bought soap and 75% of Valentine's conversaion hearts at Target, and then I went to Panera and got a fruit punch. I set up my laptop, put my phone on the table, and nervously surfed the web until I couldn't handle it anymore. The wait was getting to me.

    Happy 17th Birthday Caleb!! You finished 11th grade, and you work so hard with an incredibly difficult academic load!  You earned your AP Capstone diploma with an amazing set of AP scores! You cold emailed professors at FSU and through that process, you earned a research internship. You are studying the GLP-1 neuron in rat brains with a PhD student and have been able to solve some software issues for them that caused the grad student to call you a "miracle worker." You will continue working on this research through this school year and we are excited to read the published paper when it comes out! You were one of only 100 High Schoolers this year chosen for the Disney Dreamers Academy. It was INCREDIBLE!!! You were in the SAIL (AP Program), AP Capstone Club, Mu Alpha Theta (Math honor society), ASL Honor Society, Science National Honor Society, Beta Club, HOSA, Rho Kappa, Tri M, and marching band. You placed first in the HOSA Behavioral Health category at regionals! Yo...
