A Trophy! A First for Jasmine


It's the end of grade 1 and Jas has been taking both Mandarin and Cantonese classes at two different Chinese schools.  We were expecting Jas to do ok in the courses but we got a surprise when the teacher informed that she was getting an award at the end-of-year ceremony.  We weren't sure what to expect.

On the night of the ceremony, we managed to convince Jas to wear a pink frilly dress (as you know how much she LOVES wearing dresses, especially a pink one...)  We rushed out of her piano class (ended at 6pm) and the ceremony starts at 7pm.  It was a mad drive.  We got there in time although there were no more seats left in the auditorium so we ended up sitting outside (where they ate dinner) until it was time to present the awards.  When they called her name out, Jas walked out on stage happily to accept her trophy.   She was at the top of her class.

We also bumped into Adyson, who also received an award at the school.  Both girls had huge smiles.  I am so proud of you!!!
