OK so this background reminds me of that movie The nightmare before Christmas. Not my fav. but I am sure I will change it by tomorrow? who knows.
Friday I went to an awards ceremony for Bailey. He received one of the two Math awards in his class. Last year Chris received the same award for the whole 7th grade. (Nerds) So I went to another awards ceremony for Avery and I am thinking " just what can a kindergarten possibly get an award for. There were math, science, reading and a few others a total of 6 in each class. The teacher calls Avery up and says," we would like to presents this award to Avery for showing responsibility. He takes good care of his belongings and always follows directions! Now that was a huge surprise to me. Chris and Bailey have to be beat to clean their rooms . As a matter of fact, the boys got their report cards the other day and Bailey got Five 3's,one 4 and a 2. of course he was devastated to have gotten the 2. didn't pay attention that the teacher NEVER gives out 4's but was upset about the 2. The reason for the 2 was because he leaves papers and books laying around his desk and is messy. What the heck is that. anyway kids are so funnnnnnn:)

I love your pictures! You have such a beautiful family! Jakes school doesn't give out awards until the 3rd grade...or maybe Jake just isn't getting any..J/K, he is really smart. And as someone in the ward (someone smart, and who has very strong opions and is short..can you guess who it is)Jake is so smart and bright. A minute later she then says isn't it funny how you know why some kids are smart (because their parents are) and other kids you just don't know where they get it!.. I am not so dumb that I didn't know what she was trying to say...guess who it is. :)
I love this post- I am constantly surprised by how alike, and then how DRASTICALLY different my two boys are - it must be so fun to compare four of them! Ethans kindergarten does awards too and he got the "citezenship award" for good behavior and setting a good example...I was SHOCKED because I was so worried about the few "yellows" he had received that I thought he wasn't behaving well at school...Don't you just wish you could be a fly on the wall sometimes!
