Awards day was Wed. the 25th for John Ireland. Caitlin received the Presidential Fitness award (blue patch) and Emily received the National Fitness award (red patch) There were only 8 kids that received the blue patch, so that was quite the accomplishment. They also received awards for Accelerated Reading program. Both did very well and both love to read and take the tests.
The last day of school for Caitlin and Emily was Friday, the 27th and the kids celebrated with Field day. I was able to help out with the long jump portion and I had a great time. We didn't know if the weather would cooperate but it did and didn't start raining until we were all done. It was cold however and we were not really dressed for the occasion. The winning team was Blue team this year, which Caitlin and Emily were not on, but they were good sports about it all. Emily was so incredibly sad to leave 2nd grade. She LOVED 2nd grade and her teacher Mrs. Johnson. She cried and cried and cried some more, which meant I started to cry and other parents started to cry, the teacher's started to cry and you get the picture. It was very emotional and we can tell the teacher's love our kids. Caitlin had a great year as well, but she's a little less of an emotional person, kind of like her dad. :)
