The Courage Award



We are so proud of Reece. He was awarded a certificate in courage today at school. They were honoring the kids in each class that speak out and stop bullying and Reece got it for his class! Already it starts at 3rd grade, we have had to deal with a few occasions where he has come home already getting teased about being short or fat...and it makes me sad to think kids start all that so early but I'm so proud that the teacher notices him handling it in a good way and stopping it when he sees kids getting picked on. We have been stressing to him how important it is to remember what it feels like to get picked on and not to do it to others, including his brothers, and it looks like he's understanding! Way to go Reece!

On another note, check this picture we took last night of Gavin and Chewy! So funny!
