We received a letter in the mail requesting Kalyn be tested for a "gifted" class. Steven and I had different opinions on the subject. Steven was tickled that his daughter was smart enough to be considered. I didn't see the reasoning because personally, I know how smart she is and I don't need a piece of paper to tell me so. After much prayer and consideration, we came to the conclusion to let her decide. She cried when Steven explained it to her. She did not want any part of it. So, as it stands, we will probably never know for sure if she would have qualified as "gifted". But we do know that one single word does not sum up what she is made of.
In our eyes, she is brilliant in every way! It doesn't change a thing about how we treat her, support her, teach her and guide her. After all, she got this far on her own.
