Proud Mama
The coolest thing happened last night.
We had a basketball awards banquet. All the teams and their families gathered together to recap the year and celebrate the fun we had together. This was our first time to attend anything like this with our kiddos.
Allyson and Mason were given a folder. This folder had their very own Sabres program, with their statistics for the year in them, a cd with pictures, their letter, "S", for Sabres, a basketball pin and a bar. Then each coach was to pick one child from each team to give the "Christian Character Award" to. Would you believe it that Mason received this award for the Jr. High boys basketball team? WE ARE SO PROUD OF HIM!
The first thing he said was, "Jeremy deserves this more than I do."
It's so cool to see "fruit" from your kids!
So for those of you still in the throws of toddlerhood ...........hang in there. It will come, just keep perservering! We thought that these days would never get here. Guess what, just like all my friends before me said, "It goes by quicker than you think!" Keep training and keep smiling!
The other cool thing that happened was today. Mason got his deer mount back today. Couldn't wipe him off the ceiling if you tried!
A huge thanks to Grandma and Grandpa for doing that for him!
We are just a kickin and a grinnin.
Thanks for stopping by and letting mama brag.
Hope you have a great day.
Hugs.

Tell Mason congrats on the reward and give him a big hug for me! That is awesomed!! If you still need help getting him off the ceiling I have think maybe a good snap with a wet towel might bring him down. I think I might know of someone that could be of assistance.
Seriously, though, that is really cool. You certainly have the right to brag! Have a good day! Love ya.
Great stuff!! I think the Sabres banquet and the recognition that each child gets in their own folder is a very positive thing, and it was very affirming to Jen when she was in the basketball program.
You go, Mason!!! (and Mom and Dad for instillling those qualties into his life)
Imagine my surprise to find your blog. How exciting to find out what 's happening in your life. You're welcome to come to OH for a summer get-away
@HM - girly girl.....do you have a site? If so you need to email me and let me know specifics!
Hope all is well in your neck of the woods. Take care now! Hugs. Mama
