Spelling Bee

Brenden had the opportunity to be in the Spelling contest this year in 3rd grade. He did his best and now that too much time has passed I can't recall what word he got out on. I am sure he would if I asked but he is out playing. I was proud watching him, he is so serious and I knew his heart would break when he did get out. He was upset but I told him he did a great job and that he has two more years to try and win it. Plus we kept the word list so he can practice and look at the words. He really didn't have a lot of time to study it. We are so proud of Brenden and all that he accomplishes. He is an avid rule follower, especially at school or if he is in charge of a game or play situation at home. He likes to follow rules and make sure others are following too. He is a good big brother. He watches out for his younger siblings at the park and at school, or on the bus. He has their back and I love that. He gave me a Mother's day card and signed it...Love your only child that looks like you! Love it. He always draws or makes card. Here is an example of a book we found at my work while cleaning up.
