Bailey Gets An Award

At the boys' school they practice Character Counts. Each month a grade presents a new pillar and the children are encouraged to practice/live out that pillar. The following month the teachers present awards to the children who display that trait. The pillar for February was trustworthiness.

We got a note from Bailey's teacher telling us that she had chosen him to receive the award from their class. One other classmate received it as well. We were invited to attend the assembly so we could see our little boy be presented his award.

Unfortunately the 1st grade teachers were at a meeting so they had subs passing them out. Fortunately the PE teacher was Bailey's sub. My family adores Mrs. G! When she called Bailey's name his whole body lit up. I think he floated to the front of the gym. The principal said Bailey should have gotten the award for the most excited 1st grader to receive the award. It was really cute.

Bailey~congrats on getting such an important award. We love knowing that your teachers know they can trust you. We love you so much Beetle!

PS Will post pictures tomorrow. I thought I had them downloaded already!
