Congrats, Jackie:
When a son makes us proud... we jump for joy
, at least in my mind!
On sunday evening as I approached the cashier at the supermarket she greeted me and smilingly asked:
-You're David's mom, right?
-Yes, I am.
-Wow! Your son is so well educated. He is great.
(
Can you see my smile?)
And she continued:
_Out of all my brother's friends my mom rather hang out with him anytime. In fact, she loves him so much that she says I'll marry him!
I had no choice but to thank her for such a kind comment and of course, I made sure my husband knew about the compliment.
When I got home I gave David an extra hug and thanked him for being who he is. I do have to say he is trying hard to stay out of trouble and be responsible and make us proud. I thanked God as well, for it is not every day that you hear great news like that one!
