There was not a bunch of awards. Instead each teacher thought of one character trait to describe each child. I could tell the girls' teachers put a lot of thought into this for each child.
Haley's character trait was tender-heartedness. That perfectly describes Haley. She also got the academic excellence award for having the second highest average in 3rd grade. She had a 97 point something.
Emmie's character trait was love. That, too, perfectly describes Emma Kate. She also got perfect attendance. She was the only in her class that had perfect attendance. We were surprised about that. We did not even realize that Emma had had perfect attendance Being on time or not on time does not count against perfect attendance.
On the way home, Nicole said that considering what all they had been through this school year, she would give them the resilience award. I looked at her and said, " them, yes. Us, no". We laughed.
Since they were dressed up for awards day and it was the beginning of summer vacation, I told them to kick off their Sunday shoes. I then added to kick off their Sunday shoes in their bedrooms.
So proud of these two.
