OT Not worth prayers, but fingers crossed?
 
I received a letter today from the "Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences" with the little Oscar in the corner. They will announce the Student Academy Award winners on May 18th. For those of you not familiar, my son is up for the award.
I'm still goofing on getting a letter from the Academy Award people. I mean how many people even get that letter? :-) I'm cool just with the letter!
As my extended family, had to tell you and ask you to keep your fingers crossed. Many people here need prayers, so wouldn't want to detract from that, but if he wins...you're all his family too!
If he wins, I will attempt to get him thank the SR family! Before the music starts playing :-)
Love you all!
SM

no congrats yet...it's just kewl to get that letter. Even if (when) he wins, I still don't deserve congrats...he did it, not me. Unless you understand the power of intention....then you can give me kudos :-)

From where I sit, he has already won just by getting nominated and recognized. Some of the greatest artists have never won the award, but are still great artists worthy of recognition and praise.

Win or not, your son is definitely NOT a loser. However...lol...you CAN tell him that this Canadian Codie is rooting for him and will personally bunny slipper butt kick anyone who thinks he is less than "the best".

When he looks down from the podium and sees an old broad in bunny slippers, probably sitting between a woman with Moose Lips and a southern belle in a hoop skirt...he will KNOW who we are and why we are there. :D

I meant congratulations for the letter and feeling soooooo good!

gosh.. if he wins then that will be a whole nother set of fireworks!

Yes, it is worthy of prayers & praise for everyone involved - because

"IF IT MATTERS TO YOU, IT MATTERS TO YOUR HIGHER POWER"

soooo - sending a prayer to my HP "Please tell Secret Mom's HP that her son has received the nomination letter and if it is in the plan? OK?
Thanks, HP"

Best wishes to Secret Mom's Son,

Rita

Dear SM - As Ann said he is already a winner by being nominated - WOW! that is something! -

marle 04-10-2007 11:16 AM

I will keep your son in my thoughts and prayers and send some of those positive vibes his way. That would be some accomplishment. Frame that letter and envelope:) Hugs, Marle
