Proud Papa, Take II

The hits keep on coming. Today, Kelly received ACE academic achievement awards for the past term. Not only did she receive an award for both math and language arts (the two subjects for which awards are given), but she received both awards with honors, meaning that she receives grades of 95% and up in both areas. Kelly was one of only three students in her class to receive ACE awards; one of the other students also received both with honors.

As it probably was for many people, third grade was a real academic awakening for me. I'm very proud to see that it appears to be the same for Kelly. She hates to be in front of the crowd receiving awards (she's had a lot of experience with it already), but she is clearly pleased to have earned them.

Not half as pleased are her parents are to see her succeed!
