I am!
On Sunday authorities presented the name of Stanislav Zhuk, the legendary Soviet figure skating (well, I promised I would touch this theme as well) coach, to the Figure Skating Specialized Children and Youth School of the Olympic Reserve at CSKA in Moscow.
My younger son Alexander has been attending this school for about 10 years (and practising figure skating since 4 in general) with a certain success — anyhow, he has been in the Wikipedia for years already, and I am not :-), — so the news is kind of special for me as well.
Here is my photo from the official ceremony.
By the way, Elena Vodorezova is now the chief coach of Alexander Samarin, and you can imagine we are not only proud of it, but expect more successes in the future.
And one more photo to add:
So you see, in addition to all my merits and virtues I am also a proud father!
