Pride

I am so proud of you, my Han-Banan! You are always wanting to learn more, more, MORE! And it is contagious. You have made me want to learn and even taught me some things yourself. You taught me how to be proud of someone. Not just proud, but eyes welling up, lump in my throat, wanting to scream so the world can hear proud. Every awards ceremony it happens. I cannot put into words how much it pleases me to see you crossing that stage, accepting your medals/pins/awards, shaking the Principal's hand as though you were 20 and not only 7. Standing there with your friends wanting to share with them your excitement. You are perfect in that moment. You are gracious and kind, you are proud and honored. My love for you just pours from my heart and I want to pick you up and squeeze you forever and ever.

You make my heart smile :)
