Ryle's Recognition Day



It’s Ryle’s recognition day today. I and my husband are so proud of our 4-year old son. Though Ryle is not fully aware yet of his accomplishments, we could see with the smile on his face his joy in receiving the accolades. When we first stepped up on the stage to receive a ribbon for being “Charitable”, he was whispering to me that he likes to receive a trophy. I told him then that he would later receive a trophy. He seemed satisfied with my answer that he waited patiently for his name to be called again to receive the trophy that he longs for. To his surprise, he went up on the stage four times more (accompanied alternately by either me or my husband) to receive a medallion for a minor award (PAPRISA Sportsfest), 2 medals for major awards (2nd Place-Music Festival and Outstanding Pupil Award) and his much-awaited trophy for being a Champion to the English quiz bee.

On our way home, he was so happy with his awards especially with his trophy that he didn’t want to hand it over to us. He kept on scrutinizing the trophy and was having fun reading his name in the trophy plate.

Seeing our son enjoying his little achievements is indeed a great moment to behold.
