    Oh, congratulations!
    And thanks for the heads-up that all of this debating and arguing is for a good cause. Our teenager announced that he wants to be a lobbyist or a political analyst last night. I had a similar feeling - so that's what all that verbal back and forth was building up to!

    Congratulations!

    Only, if you think her arguments with you might be over... just realize she'll become that much more practiced at them. ;-)

    Thanks everyone, we are so happy...just can't help it! She has always worked to be a public servant so she is realizing what she has worked so hard for.

    Thank you dglvr, however not King, we live just north of King County line, in Snohomish County. So close that our mail goes to Woodinville, which is in King County.

    It sounds like she's well on her way! And, she is lucky to have you as mom!

    Yes!! Keep it that in mind while he's "lobbying" you!

    She's spent her entire young life doing pubic service, so for her this means that she is priviledged to continue. As parents nothing is more rewarding than knowing that your child has found happiness and fulfillment.

    Thanks again to you all!

    Indeed, consider yourself lucky! And, at 11, she's going to be "practicing" on you a lot more. Lucky for you that you have a legal education and can frame the debate! ;-) When she's driving you crazy, just remember she's honing those skills! :-D
