It seems like yesterday when I brought this little
person weighting 8 pounds
10 ounces home (he's
not so little now). The bright and beautiful
child has grown to a man who has
been the source of pride and joy for me and the community.
Thank
you Aryan (top photo, sitting), for
breaking the stereo type and proving as a child of a single parent
home you
are funny, happy, well heaved and well adjusted with no hang
ups and issues.
We have been through some good times together and we overcame
the obstacles
we confronted.
Thank you for being an accomplished
member of Iranian community and shining
as an individual. Thank you for graduating at the to 10% of your
school
(more than 2500 high school graduates in your school) despite believing
that
life is not only about books and studying only! Having been accepted
in the
International Baccalaureate Program is a great accomplishment but
for an
Iranian that is only a stepping stone.
Now that you are going to
be a college student, continue to be a source of
pride and joy for me and the
Iranian community by making a difference everyday and presenting
the image
of a great Iranian young man.
The pictures reflect the IB graduation (International Baccalaureate
Program,
which is program where the elite middle school graduates from Gifted
and
Magnet Programs are chosen), the award
ceremony as well as the
high school
graduation.
