I went about cleaning up dinner and Eric was doing his thing in the frontroom where he had view of the kids. After 5 minutes or so he told me I needed to go get the camera. I asked him why and he just kept telling me to get the camera. So I obeyed.
As soon as I got outside I knew why.
This was the view that met me:
Instead of fighting over the bike, the two little people decided to share. I LOVE moments like this and I am glad Eric bugged me to get the camera...
A few days later Tanis brings home this note saying that he was chosen to be recognized at a Student Recognition Assembly on April 2 at 9:30.
So at 9:15, the little peeps and I walked into the gym and I was surprised to see Shaylyn's class walking in as well. When Tanis was Student of the Month a few years ago, they did it by a grade to grade basis. They've now started doing it with the 4-6 graders and then the K-3.
This also meant that the teachers didn't say anything about why they chose the student for the Student For the Month. This made me sad. I was looking forward to hearing that. Oh well.

It really makes me happy to hear and know that my kids are doing well in school. I feel bad for my other two children as they've noticed that Tanis has now been Student of The Month two times in 5 years (since we've lived here) and they've never been chosen. Ah well I can only do so much as a parent.
Shilo, please congratulate Tanis on being Student of the month for me, that's awesome! I wish we were in Lava with you, I hope you all had fun!
