24 hugs (plus one)
ahhh...
all the love!
The non-profit organization where I work (www.telljp.com ) had its annual recognition event for the volunteers last night, and it was a wonderful evening. Since I run the training programme, I got to give out the certificates of appreciation to the wonderful, fantastic, amazing people who dedicate huge amounts of their time to train new phone counselors (I still can't say enough about how wonderful they are!).
I guess I was nervous. I think I had an attack of latina-itis. I forgot I was in Japan. I might even have spoken a little Spanish. And I gave every single one of those volunteers a great big hug when I gave them their certificate. Oops! But it was lovely, I have to say. I'd do it again!
and the other hug...
was a mom-hug, of course. I'm so pleased and proud and amazed by Sam. He has finally figured out how to read music. Or, rather, he has finally figured out that he already knew how to read music (these things can creep up on you...) and decided to try his hand at composition (or, composure, as he calls it). He's written a little peice for the piano/organ/whatever noise our little electric piano can make.
cool!
