Kindergarten Awards

By -
Monday morning was the Kindergarten Awards Ceremony for the fourth quarter.

We arrived just as Luke's class was entering the auditorium. He received 4 awards!! We were so excited and proud!

The first award he received was the Active Lifestyle Award. At the beginning of May the PE teachers sent home a calendar and asked the parents to fill it out with the physical activities their child participated in and how much time. So, I filled in all of Luke's baseball games and practices, the times he played basketball in the backyard and rode his bike around the neighborhood. Then we turned the calendar in to the PE teacher on June 1. Luke loves the young man, Mr. H who is one of the PE teachers. Here he is giving Luke his award.

(I do apologize for the pictures being blurry. Luke moves fast and these were taken with my cell phone since I was temporarily without a camera!)

Then Luke received the Personal Best Award. If you've ever spent much time around my firstborn, you know he always gives everything his best!

Next, Luke received the Perfect Attendance Award for the 4th quarter.

Then, the last awards given were for Perfect Attendance for the whole year! And, Luke did it! He has the certificate in hand. And, if he goes to school every day until Friday he will receive a medallion to hang around his neck to let everyone know of his achievement.

Luke was the only one in his class to receive this award. And, there were less than ten students in all five classes to earn it.

We are very proud of our Luke!

Pretty...

Hello There! There is something that has bothered me for years. I have begun to do better, and encouraged others to change their ways. This is it... Why do people almost always compliment little girls on their appearance first? Little girls are held to a higher standard in regard to their appearance and little boys are held to a very low standard regarding their behavior. This baffles me. I know you've heard it, probably even done it.  What's the first thing most people say to a little girl? "You're so pretty!" "Your dress is so pretty!" Why not compliment how compassionate & respectful she is because you just witnessed her let an older person get on the elevator first? Brave because you see the band-aid on her arm from a doctor visit? Smart...maybe she has a book in her hand! Funny...did she just tell the best joke you've heard all week? Creative...does she have an ornate hairstyle?  Or an outfit you would have never

Train Up A Child... Christmas edition

Many have asked how we teach our children about Jesus and still participate in the fun of Santa, Elf on the Shelf, etc... I say it simply, they know that Jesus is the true reason for Christmas.  I have had a motto for many years, " If all we put into their little hearts & minds is JESUS, then He is all that will come out!"   Here are some things we do: We GO to church.  We do not go out of habit or obligation, we go because we want to worship corporately every chance we get.  Our children have all attended Sunday school since they were very young.  I was the Mom bringing my baby to church at 9 days old, 4 days old, two weeks old...  As soon as I was able to get myself dressed by church time, we were there. Since our children were all very young, we have had nightly devotion time as a family.  Sometimes, this has been a simple prayer together after a long day.  More recently, we actually read from a children's devotional book.  The children often read it then D

A few weeks ago school started here in FullerTown. We didn't have much homework that first week. Yay!!  Then last week, we didn't have ANY due to an evening event at the church that sponsors the school.   We were really excited!  A long weekend made us feel like we were on vacation.  This week, the homework has hit us full-force. We are on the midst of learning new spelling words, Bible verses, etc...  We are also collecting insects and bark rubbings for two different projects.  May this be our best school year yet!!!
