A little togetherness

I try not to pimp this blog much… I encourage parents of limb-different kids to visit, but I rarely encourage crowds of people to visit. After Jordan’s big performance, I kind of pimped it a bit because I’m really proud. Also, I kind of think it’s special to see the confidence and grace of an almost-2-year-old who some might think wouldn’t be able to dance so well. And shoot, it’s just stinking cute to see little kids dance.

So I’ve shown her off more than usual, and it’s so special to be able to do that and feel proud and not worried about what people think when they see our little one in the video and pictures. I feel great and proud and excited to force all kinds of people to watch a few moments of Jordan on stage. Yes. I uploaded the video into my iPhone so I can hand it to anyone to watch.

I was actually walking down a hall when a co-worker started talking to me about Jordan. This is someone who I would have never thought would be interested in my girl… But this person wanted to have a good reason to smile. I’m happy to share.

To add to the pride, we had students graduate tonight. I’m proud of them all and glad I got to hug many of them and meet their parents. It’s amazing I’ve been working with students for almost five years and it still excites me. That must mean I’m doing something right.
