The Education Foundation had an essay and picture contest on the topic of, "When I grow up I want to be...". The author's names were covered and a panel reviewed and selected a number of finalists from our 15 school district. They were published in a book. The above is my son's essay. It was chosen for it's content, and no other reason.
Today was Pop's birthday. I had Alex give him the book as a gift.
Pops eyes brimmed with pride as he read.
How wonderful! Congratulations to AJ! And to you and Pops, too.
ReplyDeletebig tears on this end. no greater gift a parent can receive than a child who is proud of him.
