I-N-T-E-R-F-E-R-E

Bee OK, for lack of anything quilty to blog about (I'm hoping my secret quilt project will be finished this weekend so I can post about it), allow me a Proud Mommy Brag.  My DS#2 won the 5th Grade Spelling Bee for his school this week.  "Interfere" was his word.  They had an all-school assembly, and he won spelling this word in front of the entire school.  Not only am I proud as can be about his spelling achievement, the most miraculous part for me is how far he has come from his painfully shy early school years when something like this would have sent him to the nurse's office with a headache and wanting to come home.   I am so proud of all of my kids for everything they do every day, but I am extra especially proud of my middle child this week.

  1. I'm proud of him too. Makes me proud just to know you are proud! That is a special thing and I bet he is flying high! Spelling was my favorite class in grade school. You must be doing something right, mom, so keep it up and Happy Mother's Day!

  8. Of course... *I* knew it all the time. And is he sure it's spelled with an "e" at the end? (just kidding, and thanking whomever the genius was who invented spell check)
