A Week for Maddi

The week started and ended on an M note.


First there was Sunday's Confirmation...
(which by all accounts was spiritually beautiful)






Then there was today's 8th Grade Recognition...


...where M was awarded a Certificate of Completion , President's Award for Educational Excellence, the Health Fitness Award, the National Physical Fitness Award, Outstanding Achievement in Social Studies, the Writing Award, the Avid Reader Award, Outstanding Member of the Band, Track Team and Beauty & Beast Crew.

Not to let M take all the spot light in the week...D was one of only 6 sixth graders in the choir to receive an Outstanding Musician Award at Wednesday evening's final concert of the year.

Princess A was kept with her nose in the books trying to devise a plan on how not to flunk her AP US History final exam.

As for me I am pouring myself a stiff drink (seriously, no joke) so I can absorb the idea of Princess A being considered now, a HS senior and M being considered a HS freshman...yikes!
