15th Annual Reading Rainbow Young Writers and Illustrators Context

We learned recently that CJ's story (written in February) placed 2nd out of all the entries from northern Idaho (Grangeville and north) 15th annual Reading Rainbow Young Writers and Illustrators Contest!!! He was competing against all other first graders in the northern half of the state.

We're so proud of him, and certainly excited for this incredible year of writing he's experienced:)

class over

Wanted to share with the sisters that I have officially completed my golf course at the university, as of this Thursday. We've been meeting T/Th since mid semester. So, if I ever make it to Texas again in good weather, I think we should find a time when we can all play:) I'll probably embarass you guys, and you can pretend you don't know me, ha ha, but I think it would be fun:)

Watching Shark Boy and Lava Girl with CJ. It is mind-numbing. OMG.

Tomorrow is one of my favorite days of the year!!!

what's in your fruit bowl?

mothers...

"Mothers have nice voices" BJ says to me yesterday while we were in the car. So sweet. You never know what they are thinking about. Heading to a Mother's Day Luncheon today with BJ at his school, you know I can't wait! The staff there is UNBELIEVABLE to put this together, esp. in the middle of Teacher Appreciation Week. We should be doing this for the teachers!
