Pro Award

Told you that I would be posted again right away!  We attended Grace's assembly today to see her receive her PRO (People Respecting Others) award.  As soon as you walk into the school there is a positive vibe!  I love it!  Since today was Friday, it was spirit day - most teachers and kids were wearing their "Nose Creek" red t-shirts.

At the beginning of the assembly the principal raised his hand and the entire gym (400 + students, staff and parents) all became quiet - man I wish I had that much power.  You can just tell that the kids and staff respect the principal!  He talked about the virtues and characteristics one puts forth to receive a PRO award.  I can tell ya', Mike and I (Nana too!) were some pretty proud parents!

He touched on the point that awards are almost always given out for Sports and Academics, but hardly ever given out "just for being a great person"!  So true!  We all need to acknowledge those around us who make out lives a little bit easier, a little bit happier and those who keep us smilin'!!  Pay it forward people!!

Anyways, here are some pics from today!

Grace asked me if I could see her "legs wobbling"?  She was pretty nervous!
