Your Kids Are Awesome. Really.

You may recall this post. I was very transparent by stating that sometimes I'm really conscious about the fact that I'm a young mother (and a single mother and a Black mother). I was also talking about how sometimes I feel like I need Aiden to be his best self at school because [sometimes] I'm afraid that his teachers will judge us (me). 

Yeah, I'm sure you remember it.

Then you guys joined the conversation. And, in all of your fabulousness, you guys were also transparent by sharing some of things that makes you self-aware. Thank you. 

Well... I'm happy to report that a few days after writing that post, I had a meeting with Aiden's head teacher and she had nothing but great things to say about the kid. He's doing exceptionally well in Pre-K, both academically and socially. He's above average in many areas and well on his way to being a strong reader. I already knew this, but getting the affirmation and confirmation from his teacher was the icing on the very delicious cake. (Sometimes little affirmations work wonders, no?)

What A Happy Kid!

So excuse me while I get down with my bad self and do the running man or some other cool dance. I have nothing to worry about (for now) because, well, my kid is some kind of awesome.

And so is your kid. 

Each and every one of you has a too-awesome-for-words kid. Really. So I'll excuse you while you get down with your bad self and leave a comment sharing something awesome about your kid.

Go on, brag about them. They deserve it.
