So about half way through the year we told the bigs that if they kept their straight A's that we would enjoy the melting pot one evening. They were super pumped for this experience and worked hard. Unfortunately Ady's science grade slipped to an 85% and despite working hard and double checking tests she was only able to get that up to an 88%. She was sad to hear that she wouldn't be going to this special dinner but daddy hatched an amazing plan. We told Drew that he was allowed to take a buddy secretly telling him that his 'friend' choice would be Ady. And MAN on the day that he told Ady he wanted her to come as his friend of choice she BEAMED. Drew was a hero and we still got to enjoy our original plans. WIN WIN! The kids absolutely LOVED having cheese and chocolate fondue and while the Melting Pot is extremely overpriced is was such a cool experience for all 3 of them! Also to note Drew ended 5th grade with all A's above 95% including his 6th/7th grade compacted math. We couldn't be more proud.
Drew at his 5th grade graduation where he received A honor roll, ELA Student of the Year for academic achievement (only 4 in 5th grade) as well as the PE teacher nominated Outstanding Student of the Year for Physical Education where only 10 in 5th grade received it! We are SO SO proud of the person he has grown into!
