Award Day for Zach

Today was Zach's award day at school.  He had straight A's for the whole year and we are so proud of him.  Not necessarily because he got straight A's, but because he really worked hard all year.  He put everything he had into every assignment.  He never missed a day of homework and reminded me if our afternoon got so busy that we might not get to it.  He had lots of self doubt with his reading, especially when he was accelerated to chapter books. I don't know what it was about the *chapters*, but it really intimidated him.  He forged ahead, however, with his teacher's encouragement, and now he loves to read.

Scarlett was very busy throughout the entire event.  I chased her all around but I managed to see Zach get his award and not lose Scarlett in the audience.  Eventually, she wanted to hang out in this one area, to the side of the stage, so snapped a few photos...
