---Achievement Letter

Finally, my daughter handed over the letter coming from the principal that she qualified to get an achievement award this school year after of course passing the exam. I wasn’t really surprised because her adviser gave me a notice the last time I came to pick up her school card. The school only notifies pupils whose grades on each subject were not lower than 90%, to undergo an examination and identify pupils qualified for the so-called a "Diligence Award". Being a transferee, she ended up on the second section, I am really pleased of her performance and the grades she is getting are merely a product of her personal diligence, motivation and natural common sense. I know that this may not guarantee a sure medal, but the fact that she is doing well at school on her own with the new school is so much for me to know and believe that she can bag the award. At times, I feel some sense of guilt that I cannot own the merit she is getting which is good,knowing that she can work independently. I always encourage her to do her own homework’s and approach any of us when she is confused. Most of the time she’d come to ask her dad, while I’m past asleep. I’d probably take accountability if it was an artwork or something else. The best that I can give most of the time, is the presence of a mom during meetings and school activities that sometimes I get to feel awkward around old people talking about family agendas. I'm so proud of her, that she's turning to be a really good child to us, though; sometimes she acquires her Dad's silly penchants...corny jokes and the way she rationalize things. I don’t think it's annoying yet I want her to find her distinct way of being her. She is not outwardly sweet but she is very close to her father. When she leaves for school, she'd call me out and say "Ma, catch!", I'd go out and catch the flying kiss with my hands., and that means a lot to me.
She's just 9 turning 10 and I hope she gets to keep this within her to better all school activities and become a decent person as she grows. I love you Xy!
