"You will have significant experiences. I hope that you will write them down and keep a record of them, that you will read them from time to time and refresh your memory of these meaningful, significant things. Some of them may be funny. Some may be of significance only to you. Some of them may be sacred and quietly beautiful. Some may build one upon another until they represent a lifetime of special experience." ~ President Gordon B. Hinckley
Emily and Mordecai had their awards ceremony this morning. I knew that Emily was going to get an award and was hoping that Mordecai wouldn't feel left out. I watched Mordecai's face when the kids were getting called up and realized he was realizing he wasn't getting awarded for anything. My heart just sank, but then they called his name for attendance and he just BEAMED. I am so sad tomorrow is the last day of school. Before Emily started school I thought it was silly when people would talk about how sad they were, but I am one of those. I feel like our kids have been extremely blessed with great teachers and I am sad for those associations and teachings to end.
