Principal Award x's 2

PB and CJ were supposed to get the Principal's Achievement Award before the break but it rained on their last assembly day.

They received their awards this past Friday. I was so proud! It was so neat to see how surprised they were when their names were called. CJ was so excited she was hopping when she received the certificate.

PB got student of the month last year but what a treat it was this year to see both of my daughters get recognized on the same day.


I must say it was a proud moment for me. It is too much to expect them to do well academically this early? CJ promises us that she will become a doctor some day. She also says in the same breath that she doesn't plan to marry. Her plan is to make lots of money so that we can live with her. She says that she's going to buy me an SUV.

I'm writing this down so that it is documented somewhere so I can prove to her that she said it.

PB has some dreams that she wants to accomplish too. Her dreams tend to be more on the creative side. She says that she wants to be a teacher or an author. She has also thought of being a nurse (for a while she thought doctors were only men). Unlike CJ, she does plan to marry but she reassures me it won't be too soon (she knows that it's a sensitive issue for me).

Happy New Year everyone!

Introducing...

Piper Su Jung Koehn born Jan 3, 2007.

My sister had her 2nd baby this past week. That makes 2 daughters for the Koehns and 2 daughters for the Chongs. I wonder how my parents are taking the news of two sets of 2 daughters? They say that Korean parents always prize their sons. Well as for me, I treasure my daughters.

Piper and her sister, Audrey, were born with this greyish tint in their eyes. Their eyes get darker as they get older. I look at her and can't help but feel that she will have a personality like Chloe's. Audrey, the older sister, is very gentle, affectionate, and a bit shy. It should be interesting to see how her personality will start coming out. I can't wait to meet you face to face.

Lord, bless her and her family! Posted by Picasa
