We had quite the crowd there, in support of Luke when I walked in from my doctor appointment. Nate, Charity, Kelly, Bradley and Molly were all saving me a seat. There were a few speeches, the kids sang some songs, it was so neat! It was crazy to think about the fact that Luke is moving on to Jr. High. He doesn't seem old enough yet! I mean, I think he's ready, especially academically, but it's just so weird. I am really excited for him though, to move on and do new things. I think he will like some of it. Then they had the awards. He got one for perfect attendance. He got the Gold Presidential Academic award (which is REALLY awesome!) and when he was on stage for that one, he made sure to wave and yell out, "HI MOM!" He's a cheese ball. He was sure he was going to get the Presidential fitness award and had been working toward the three year one but with the new PE teacher, didn't receive those or even a National Fitness award. We're not really sure what went wrong there. I've been emailing her to find out why he didn't get it and am still waiting to hear back. Mrs. Johnson the old PE teacher has been texting me angrily wondering what's going on as well. Kind of a bummer. But hopefully we can get that sorted out and Luke will get the certificate he was hoping for. Not just hoping for, the one that he earned. Janice and I both think this is why he didn't get to go to Decathlon. She really must have just entered in his info wrong. Which is a TOTAL BUMMER!! But we're trying not to think about that. Clint invited us all to Dairy Queen with them after to celebrate, so that was fun too. I love that Luke has done so well in school even though he openly dislikes it! I think we owe the perfect attendance to Mrs. Downs. She really made it a fun year and each day was something to look forward to. Here's to a great summer! 6-1-18
