The room was full of people! They don't just award one person first place. They did award a limited amount of people.
I skipped out of work to go. Last year I didn't go, and had Travis went instead.
The breakfast was good!
They awarded each kid with a medal. All the kids in the room got A's on their projects. Some kid's projects get to go to the zoo for another round. Mica's isn't going to that this year, but it did last year. when that happens they go against different schools.
Fun little fact: My maiden name is Spiehs, said like Sp-(long) eee-ss. I never see anyone else with that last name. There are 2 kids that go to school with Mica with that last name. We must be related somehow.
Mica seemed like he didn't want to be there. He doesn't seem to like it when we come to his sanctuary - school. Suck it up buttercup!
He snubbed the wild cat when it came to shaking his/her hand. He typically shakes hands well.
He didn't want me to take his picture. Too bad!
Oh boy, he is REALLY becoming a teen! I have to say in that shot he does look a lot more manly than boyish!
ReplyDeleteIt sounds like he's getting to that too cool for parents stage lol. Hopefully those awkward years go by quick for him.
ReplyDeleteLiz I call him and my students Kidults. "Kid" and "Adults" mixed together. He's taller than I am, growing a wanna be mustache, and is often moody! He'll be super nice one day, and a grump the next. When he's grumpy, I'm grumpy. He thinks I'm hard to deal with. LOL
ReplyDeleteCongrats to your boy! Cool medal!
ReplyDeletehaha. Such a mom thing to do – go and take pictures at an award ceremony. lol. I hated having my picture taken too, when I was his age. Maybe he'll grow out of it? Or maybe not.
