Monday Brag Day

I decided to make a series. Every Monday, I will post bragging rights as a mom. I encourage you to add your brags for the day. As a mom, I always have something beautiful to share or simply something I am truly proud of. You see, it may seem trivial to a lot of people but as moms, we love to know our children's achievement, talk about it endlessly. As I blog along, I realize it is not only a place to ramble or release tension or for me to keep my love for writing alive but more importantly, it is my online journal and oftentimes, I go back to it and it brings back good memories.

Today, while driving home from work, Josh said; "mom, everytime Miss Roybal asks a question, she says, can anyone answer this question besides Josh?" Get it, get it? Little Josh is the best in class since kindergarten and I am proud to say that. Not that you haven't heard me say it... I am sure you are tired of it. Right? But, just indulge me, will you? My Josh is number one in class since kindergarten!

Karmina is invited to Awards Night dinner on May 29th. I asked her jokingly if dinner is free so we can all go. She said, "mom, it's only for awardees." I asked her again ( I know, I annoy my kids a lot with my questions) if it was because of her swimming competition award. She looks at me with those big beautiful bright eyes( I warned you it is bragging day), " yes... AND for leadership AND for academics.." Is she upset or bragging? I think both. She is upset I do not expect her to get any other awards and bragging because she is again a leadership awardee and honor roll student aside from her sports achievement. I think KC is the most well rounded of all the Three Little Monkeys in Llagaland.

I am sure you know already but let me show you Pherry's score as a gifted child so you won't think I'm just bragging. At this point let me point out if it is not obvious yet that I am trying to be funny in writing this... here goes. I am trying to be funny. Nuff said.



Happy Brag day everyone!
