My daughter went to her schools’ awards ceremony (she’s a Sophomore) expecting to get recognition for the AB Honor Roll, and told us not to go. Like a couple of dummies, we didn’t.
She came home with Six awards!
- World History Achievement Award
- 10th Grade Citizenship
- AB Honor Roll
- Chemistry I Outstanding Student (only one given per grade)
- Drama I Citizenship Award (only one given per grade)
- English II Outstanding Student (only one given per grade)
I’m not a person who either lives through their kids or sees them as personal validation, I’m just so proud of her for her own accomplishments! Well mannered and reasonably sharp, a winning combination.

Ain’t being a proud pappa the best feeling in the world?
Having stood in both pairs of shoes, being a proud parent is as gratifying as being a proud grandparent!
Our congrats to the entire family.
I learned a long time ago not to listent to my kids – especially when it came to award time. Predictably, they were grateful we’d ignored their requests. Congrats to your daughter!
Congratulations, GD! Revel with a special cup of joe, or a Shiner–especially since I am out of Shiner region.

Awesome! I know you’re REALLY proud of her. Send her my congrats and love, too!
I have been corrected on the ‘one per grade’, and the post now reflects the correct frequency of awards.
GruntDoc regrets the error.
Congrats. Hope you get to attend many more in the future.
