Lilah Ending the School Year Strong with Scholastic and Sports Awards
From the other side of the kitchen counter, Lilah nonchalantly said “Oh, I got this,” and handed me an invitation she received. It was a short note indicating that Lilah had been selected to receive a special award at her school during an awards’ ceremony school officials were calling “The Academy Awards,” in honor of all three academies (Arts, Science, and Engineering) represented at Lilah’s high school. I proceeded to walk around the counter to offer Lilah a big hug and all she said in her deadpan delivery was, “I didn’t show you that because I wanted you to give me a hug.”
