Ady's Rad Reader Award

Ady's teachers give out special awards to each student with an atribute they have. Ady received the Rad Reader award for being such a bookworm. Derek's book loving family is quite excited for her!

For posterity sake I did want to mention the tears we had on this day. Ady was awarded the A/B Honor Roll as she ended up with one B+ in science. Derek and I were SUPER proud of her but she noticed that all of her friends ended up with the A Honor Roll medal around their neck and got quite upset about it. As a parent it broke my heart. We know that she's a little sibling of an academically gifted child and we try constantly to remind her that A/B is just wonderful and really good grades but it's hard. I was actually happy that she got emotional about it as it shows that she cares and it had nothing to do with Drew. We made it a goal together to work hard in 3rd grade and earn that A Honor Roll.  :)
