Wordless Wednesday - Awards & More

Life is not measured by

the number of breaths we take,

but by the moments that take our breath away.

Rebekah gets the Sharing Bag...

Rebekah took her puppy that Andrew won for her in the sharing bag. She determined the puppy's name is Rebekah and she's a soft puppy--that's why the puppy was chosen. She wanted to take her softest animal and this one tied for soft...but it was the biggest (insert inappropriate size joke here).

The Sharing Bag (Show & Tell) is the most coveted item at preschool.

State Music Festival for Piano

Both boys were invited to the State Music Festival based on their performance and theory scores at the District Festival. A Superior Rating is a "1" and both boys got Superiors. Andrew got a 1+ and Nathan got a 1. That earned both boys a trophy. We're proud of their hard work and happy it paid off for them.

This year, there were two trophies to choose from. Andrew took the Red, White & Blue trophy.

  

Nathan chose the other trophy with a music medallion at the top. He selected it because the back is shiny gold and he can reflect the light and make flashes of light with it.

Rebekah had to get in on the photos.

We are so proud of all of our children. Each one is a winner regardless of the awards they receive. We're just happy to see others recognize their excellence, too.

(Next, I'm going to try to get videos of the boys playing their songs because I think you will be impressed by their pieces. I know I am!)
