            Just got an e-mail today from Cary's special education teacher. He is always nice to the other students and teachers, and so he is getting to have a special lunch in his honor with the principal and other students for being the embodiment of their core value "kindness and compassion". 
Hooray Cary.
Happy mom....

                    Aww, you needed that didn't you Dawn? You can always rely on your kids to cheer you up. Good for Cary.

                    Ahhh, that is nice to hear. I bet he is a happy fellow. My grandson always gets alittle embarrased at the extra attention but I think he likes it too. My grandson has been doing alot better this year and he even got an award at the last assembly. Makes a parent proud huh? I am happy for you. Nice when things go well and everything is harmoneous isn't it?

                            He'll get over it though. Good experience for him.

                            They only gave him a fruit snack, but it was the "principal" of the thing. lol

 He must be delighted to have the appreciation for his special lunch. You are a great mom. I am sure that he was so pleased to make you very proud of him. I hope that he enjoys his lunch and have so much fun too.

                    It is always very nice when our children are recognized for the good things that they do at school. Kathryn's school has a program that is called KNIGHT awards for their school mascot. The children are recognized for all kinds of things and one child from each grade is drawn on a daily basis to get to sit in a special area in the cafeteria for lunch. I am always so proud of Kathryn when she comes home with a KNIGHT award.

                    My school does this at the end of every quarter with students who have not lost any points, and who have gone above and beyond. I think with how much time is spent on the negative behaviors, it is great to honor and point out the good behaviors.

                            It is also very meaningful to Cary that you know how much he tries. He is having some successes and that is what every child needs.

                            Well morning wasn't so happy. The girls were kicking each other. But this will pass...
