Another proud poppa moment...

Sorry guys I am not on Facebook so I have to share here with you guys.

My oldest daughter Courtney took home not one, but TWO Gold key awards in the Schoolastic Arts & Writing contest. Her pieces will now be sent to NYC for a higher level of competition from NE region schools.

That's great. My kids are still only 3 and 1 year old. They only thing they do is be cute. I'm still proud of them for doing that. It must be great to have your kid accomplish something big. Tell her to keep doing what she loves to do.

Spencer those are illustrations, not photographs.... Funny thing is the judges thought the same and almost rejected the sillouette for being in the wrong category. :crazy:
