Respectful Award

I was so proud of Avery this week. There was an award given out in her class for displaying Guiding Principles and this one was Respect. Avery was chosen by her teacher to get the award. It was the first one of the year and she was the only one in her class to get it. She came off the bus proudly wearing her ribbon and was SOOO excited and proud of herself. I couldn't get many details from her about what was said beyond "When I ask Avery to do something she always follows directions and does it." The Principal also sent us a letter congratulating Avery and she was honored in the school newsletter.

Going into a new school and a public school (which I never went to) made me nervous. But it's been a GREAT start - She is happy everyday and her teacher wrote to me that  "Avery is just a peach". I am glad she is making friends and being recognized by her teacher. 

I waited a couple days and now she has no interest in taking a picture for me....
