Many happy returns...
So my first post dealt with my daughter being one of thirty out of four hundred students at her school to make the principal's honor list for having a 4.0.
Tonight I received another gift I was not expecting...
My daughter made the "Under 9" All-Star soccer team. Now this was a particularly beautiful smile I received from my daughter as she had just gotten her teeth cleaned at the dentist only minutes prior to the news.
Hard work as a parent is providing me as many happy returns as it is my daughter.
She is beginning now to reap the benefits of her own intellect and hard athletic work. She has confidence and faith in her abilities, as others are affirming what she wasn't really sure of.
She patted me on the back. I hugged her.
Happy Holidays!

Yay M! Let her know I said congratulations. Although, I was sort of hoping she'd turn out more nerdy. There's already way too many jocks hanging around our group. In fact, I think I might be the only one that isn't.

Good call on Heather, Sara. Although, I hear she's big on the yoga now and lots of athletes do the yoga.
