I went to my students’ basketball tournament. All five got to play and received trophies too! It was amazing to watch and I had a lot of fun; so did they, with big, smiling faces.
When I got home only a few moments ago, I received this…
And nearly cried.
They make me proud each and every day.

That’s a keeper! I don’t know if parents always realize how much we also love their kids and love to see them do big things. We are the ones who are blessed–and it is so heartwarming to know when they see how much that relationship means to us all. I’m so glad you shared that moment!
