Filling One's Bucket

Walker got the "Bucket Filler Award" at school on Friday! It was a surprise to him, but I knew ahead of time (therefore I could arrange to be there). My favorite thing about this picture is Lainey's face...she's in the audience, turned around, looking at me. She genuinely shows happiness and joy for other kids when they do well. I love her for that.


We were SO proud of Walker for receiving this award! They pick one girl and one boy from each grade to receive this award...it's based on the book How Full is Your Bucket? and Walker received it this week! He is apparently very respectful to his peers and teachers. :)


so cute, standing up there

We are so proud of him! And I love his teacher's handwriting! It's perfect!

I had to leave to go to work but Yiyia took this picture of Walker and sent it to me!

And here's the sweet, proud big sister.

Lainey was chosen to be the Star Student for the upcoming week. This is her poster.

She cracks me up. I love the way she writes...she puts her voice and personality into each piece of writing that she does! She says that she loves to "free write" which is what what I loved to do as a child, too.

She apparently loves to dance. :) (She's advertising her upcoming Dance Convention/Competition.)


She claims to have the memory of an elephant which is basically true.



Her dad is her hero. :)

And here is Lainey with her friend Joe. Joe is a bit older than Lainey, but she thinks he's so funny. We know Joe and his family from church. She didn't want to put her arm around him in this picture because she felt a "little shy" but she did enjoy seeing him (Joe's baseball team played on the field next to Walker's baseball team!).
