Our Shining Star

Henry was chosen to be be on of the Shining Stars at his school this week. It is such a cool new thing that they started at his school. They have the kids fill out a form that tells them about the kid -- their favorite food, favorite subject in school, favorite color, etc. Then the principal calls up each kid and highlights things on the sheet and then asks for a round of applause. It is such a lovely way to highlight the unique and wonderful things about the child. I, of course, cried.  Henry made sure to point out that he loved football and basketball (the principal noted that throughout his sheet she noted a theme....that he LOVED sports). He also said that Math was his favorite subject. Shocking, right?
