My parents show excitement when they see me study my books without being told. Another thing that makes them excited is when I pray and read the Bible. In addition, I resemble my parents especially my mummy even in complexion and this makes her feel very good about me while daddy is always excited when I smile because I resemble him with that, as well as in character. Whenever I have good grades in school, it is always a time of excitement for my parents.
