I am very proud of my boys. They both study hard and make really good grades. Plus, they always have their manners intact when around other ppl. I couldn't have asked for better boys.

Their teachers are always commenting on how mannerly they are. They can't believe that manners still exist in the world today because they seem to be so rare amoung the youth of today.

My son's only 2 so he hasn't done a lot (though he does SOME thing to amaze me every day!), But I'd have to say that the accomplishment that I'm most proud of is that he's already potty trained (baring the occasional accident) and has been since he was about 1 1/2!
All the book and such say to START trying to potty train GIRLS at 2 and not to start boys 'till 3!
I say forget the books -- your kid will let you know when he/she is ready (and may it be sooner than later, diapers are WAY too expensive!)

Yes I am very proud of my two kids. They are both adults now and have had to endure many trials along the way. What I am most proud of is that they recognized wrong choices and took responsibility for them and finally have found what they feel is their place in life.

I am very proud of my 24 year old daughter. She graduated high school at 16, and scored the second highest for the state of West Virginia on her sat for college. She won a 86,000 scholarship and went to school five hours away four 5 months, and gave it all up to come home and her with my mother, her granny as she was diagnosised with terminal lung cancer. She transfered to a local college, but lost her scholarship. she is in her last year of pharmacy school.

My 6 year old daughter started reading last year in Kindergarten at the age of 5. She finished Kindergarten reading at an almost 3rd grade level and is past that now. I am so proud of her. And my 5 year old son is so sweet with his baby sister. He is a big helper and will do anything for her. That makes me very proud.

She is a little smarty pants, that's for sure. She already acts like she is 16 and thinks she knows it all. She is pretty good in math, too and is already writing stories and is a better speller then me, I think, lol.

I got 3 kids...They all go to the same Catholic School. My 15 year old eldest boy is already in his third year high school. He was once a varsity basketball player in school during his elementary days, and he played so well. He also got that slot in his new school when he's in second year high school. But he need to quit because it interferes with his academics. But that doesn't end there, he is involved in playing guitars at the moment and in Top 9 in his class...My second is a 14 year old girl and in 2nd year high school. She is a very studious student, very fashionista and loves shopping that much...She's into Art. My youngest is a grade 3 student. He is only 10 years old. He wants to become an actor someday. He can sing and dance. he makes people smiles all the time. I am definitely a proud mom of three adorable kids...

Actually, their coach have talked to us last week because he wants my eldest to be in the varsity again however, my son wants to focus on studies first and he really loves to play the guitars...so whatever makes my son happy then ill just support him. Yes! my daughter love shopping so much. She always want to be at the mall. Sometimes I give up already because I always run out of budget. My youngest has been active in school programs...Im thinking of enrolling him to a music school this summer. Who knows? He can really be an actor...Thanks!

I am so proud of my children every day. Just watching them play and be so wonderful or seeing them sleeping so sweetly in their beds at night makes my chest swell with the pride I feel for them.
