Dear Mama,
We had our Area speech contest in Toastmasters yesterday. I won in the Humorous, and International category, Mama. I finally became a champion, Mama! I hope you are proud of me.
It took me almost 7 years to become a champion, after so many attempts, and I finally made it. Of course, this is just the Area level. I still have to win the Division contest on March 4 before I can dream of making it in the national, which is our District finals at the end of April, Mama.
I do wish you're here with me now, Mama. This victory would have been sweeter with you by my side. I hope I am making you proud.
I miss you, Mama. I love you.
Daddy
