STUDENT OF THE MONTH

WOW! Two posts in one day - that's what I get for being so busy I can barely breathe. Let alone deal with my blog. I had to brag about my Kylie. She was chosen as Student of the Month! Each teacher picks a student in their class each month that best exemplifies the value of the month. Kylie's teacher chose her for the month of Septemebr & the value was R-E-S-P-E-C-T!! Here's what her teacher said about her...
"Kylie is a friend to all. She never excludes anyone or makes them feel unimportant. She has a smile for everyone and always treats others with respect and kindness. She brightens up our room with her smile and warm, friendly personality. I am so happy that she is a part of our classroom."

She truly is a sweet kid. You know how some kids can be just mean? Kylie cannot! She is kind to everyone. In fact, it was fitting that at the little ceremony the little girl to the left of Kylie in the above picture was terrified. She's a little girl in Jadyn's class & just cried because she didn't want to go up to get her picture taken with the other kids. Well, Kylie asked her if she would go up when they called Kylie up & she said yes. Kylie made sure she stood by her & was ok. Then, she was fine. But, that's the typical thing for Kylie to do. She's amazing that way! When Kylie played soccer in Vegas when she was 4 or 5 she spent most of her time on the field making sure others were ok & keeping up - rather than paying attention to the ball. She just cheered others on. She always tries to include everyone in things - although, she does have to be in charge! We call her our "little Bishop" because we have to show up a few minutes early for church so she can walk around & greet everyone. Erik & I sit down while Kylie goes around & welcomes everyone to church. She's so funny, but I love that she's just so loving & sweet to everyone! She's the best & we love her so. CONGRATS MY KIDDO!!

Now, here's a funny Jay story for the day. We showed up to drop her off for school a couple of minutes early & she decided she needed to go to the bathroom before school started. So, we walked back to the student restrooms & she went in. A couple of minutes later she walks out & walks into the boys bathroom. I was on the phone with my Dad & I start yelling "Jadyn - you can't go in their - that's the boys!" She comes out & holds up her finger in the "just a minute" fashion & walks back in. I yell again & then she comes out with a paper towel in her hand. "Mom, I had to go in their to get a paper towel to dry my hands because the girls bathroom is out!" Well, duh! What was I thinking? Silly mom! Silly kid!

Kylie is an awesome girl. We love having her and Jayden over. Christian was telling Mike how much he likes Kylie the other night. Mike asked, "Do you want to marry Kylie when you grow up someday?" Christian matter of factly responded yes. Then Mike told him that she probably will only want to marry somebody that has gone on a mission. So he said he would go on a mission. Cracks me up. :)

And that story about Jayden, totally laughed out loud on that one. That is hysterical. Come on, let's be practical Mom. :)

I love Kylie! I miss her being my student. She really is a special kid. Can't wait to see what she is like as an adult!

Yay for Kylie! I've never seen that girl in a bad mood. She's not afraid of anything, and she talks to everyone like they're best friends, even if they just met. i wish i was more like Kylie!!
