Earning that same award has been Curly's goal ever since that day (check out how cute he is as a first grader on Sport's post!).
Curly has always wanted to be like Sport, but this one was special. Sport's picture still hangs on the wall at the elementary school and now it will be joined by this year's winners and that includes Curly.
He received an email from his teacher this morning and the first thing he did was come in and wake me up, give me a big hug, and proclaim his victory for all to hear. He was so happy and so excited!
The actual award will be given next Wednesday and I will be sure to share a pic with you, but for now, I want to share with you a little video about one of Curly's favorite projects for the school. He was required to build a castle.
It took him a couple of weeks to get it together, but he was sure happy with the way it turned out! His dad suggested he put it in the sandpile and dig an acutal moat around it. It looks fabulous in the video, but we had to fill it about 5 times because the sand kept soaking up the water.
See those pink flags? I think they have been on at least 3 other castles made by my kids. Sadly, I had to replace the chain this year when the links from previous years went missing. It's weird to think that only Baby Doll will be in elementary school next year. We all just keep getting older and older.
Congratulations Curly!
