Go Kiya Go!!!

We have had some pretty exciting news this week!

Thursday was track at Kiya and Mylee's school.  It is always fun looking out the window and watching all the kids participate in the events of track and field.  The kids always look so fast and you can't help but cheer them on.  And when you know most of the kids at the school your heart just swells with happiness for them.

Kiya came home Thursday smiling, which isn't different from every other day, but there was a little more spring in her step.  I asked her what's up and she held up a 5th place ribbon.  I was so excited for her. Kiya has been trying to get a ribbon for something track related for 4 years and each year she gets disappointed.  But not this year!

And she had amazing news.  Not only did Kiya receive a 5th place ribbon, she has been placed as an alternate on the school's track team and has an invitation to the Birchmount meet where her school competes against other schools in the Scarborough area.  Kiya's event is the triple jump.

We are so proud of her and I am hoping it is on a day where daddy can skip out on work. Mommy fully intends on attending as long as she has permission just for morale support for the school! So now I want to go out and pick up a Macklin shirt and show the colours!!! Way to go Kiya!!!!
