Mother's Pride by judithg

Mother's Pride

My daughter's Sixth Form College have very kindly given her some money to help fund her trip to the Tang Soo Do Karate World Championships in the states next month. Her lovely PE teacher is very proud of her achievements and wanted the school to show their support for her and the newspaper to make a bit of a thing of it. Rachel and Adam ventured around to the newsagents first thing in the morning and both found the article at the same time, looked at each other and shut the page quick! Obviously we have bought just about every copy - parents out of pride, Rachel out of embarrassment!
congrats to her!

Wow how great - how come there's no shot like that in your album? We await.
June 24th, 2012  
Wonderful!!! Love how you've pinked the edges like a scrapbook. And congrats!
June 24th, 2012  
Go, Rachel! What a cool shot of her!

@bpaquette Sorry about random use of question marks!!
June 24th, 2012  
Wow - very impressive!

@fueast Well Professor Tomlin you have to go back a long way. And I can't believe I posted something so technically dreadful... and she has her big toe sticking out in this one as well.... http://365project.org/judithg/365/2011-01-21

Congratulations to her and hope she has a fantastic trip!
June 24th, 2012  
Well done Rachel - Congratulations! Great shot and processing by a proud mother!
June 24th, 2012  
This shot in the paper looks like your identical photo Judith did you provide the picture, if so it has come in very useful after all?
Rachel must be so good at Karate to be chosen to go to the States you must be immensely proud of her, she sounds like a very modest star! We will watch this space!
June 24th, 2012  
That's a great feature article and well done Rachel!
June 24th, 2012  
Wow! What an accomplishment! Great shot!
June 24th, 2012  
Wow congratulations to Rachel, exciting times ahead for her

June 25th, 2012  
Congrats!
June 25th, 2012  
Yes, congratulations from me too & I like the pinking shears edge to the shot. Also the positioning of the article, and especially the photo, within the shot.
June 25th, 2012  
Awww congratulations to her. It's a parent's prerogative to be proud :o) xx

brilliant narrative and a photo and newspaper to be rightly proud of Judith.

I have an newspaper article to share with my 365'ers too...once I get round to scanning it :)

June 25th, 2012  
@phil_howcroft Oooh - teasing us Phil! I didn't bother scanning - just took a photo!
June 25th, 2012  
@happypat No - it does look like mine but the news photographer got his exposure right whereas I had to do some extreme processing!
June 25th, 2012  
@judithg oooh judith good idea re scanning versus taking a photo :) .....i might try that !!!
June 25th, 2012  
Go Rachel, fantastic achievement, great that the school are helping too :) Enjoy your proud mum moment!
June 25th, 2012  
How very cool!!!!!
June 25th, 2012  
Great achievement and great opportunity. Should be a great experience. Bet you are so proud of her.
June 25th, 2012  
Wow that is incredible! What an accomplishment! I wish her all the best and look forward to hearing more! Great photo of her!
