Last night I received a phone call from Malik's teacher telling me that during the assembly on Friday he would be receiving the "Principal's Award" and if we could attend that would be great. I was so excited for him! Many of you can relate to this feeling, it begins with a little lump in your throat, your heart jumps a bit and finally, when you can't hold it back any longer, you cry tears of joy for your sweet child. As his mother, I have the amazing opportunity to know how smart, creative and funny Malik is, but it is always makes a mom proud to know that others see those same things.
I love you Mal, you make my heart happy!
Sorry, it's a little blurry, Malik is dead center in the stripped shirt.

Congratulations Malik! Way to go. And Brenda I totally know what you mean about the getting choked up part. I cry at every big thing Tyler does. This week is our primary program and I will probably cry then to. I think at big moments like these you really realize how fast they are growing up and it makes you a little sad that they aren't babies anymore. Or at least that is my case.
I am so proud of you Malik. I can relate to that too Brenda. The feeling of pure joy for your child. That is awesome. Could this be another reason for you to stay? Ok...I tried! :/
good job Malik! I always knew you were a creative genious. Your Easton ying to his yang. We're going to miss it.
He is so handsome!!! Good job Mal!

Way to go Malik. It doesn't surprise me to hear of this accomplishment. Brenda, I was like that when our kids excelled and it doesn't change when it comes to grandkids. It is a most exciting and emotional time. Just reading the blog brought trears and excitement to me.
News like that is the best! Holy cow, I can't believe you guys are moving back to Colorado! But congratulations on the new job--Corey will be so great! Good luck with everything!
