Student Council?




Amelia decided to campain for 4th grade student council this year, so yesterday she got to work on her poster and speech to prepare for the big day. Her poster turned out great! She modeled the poster after one of her favorite TV shows "i Carly" and made it look like a web site on a computer screen... except of course Amelia's was titled "i Amelia". Well, I hate to report that Amelia did not get voted into the student council this year. She was dissappointed, but I was so proud of her because she bounced right back and announced that she was going to try again next year! I told her that what mattered was that she tried at all, and that it was very brave of her to make such an effort. There was no time to be very sad because she had to get ready for her sleepover tonight with a classmate! Once again Dave and I will not see very much of Amelia this weekend... she has the sleepover tonight and another one tomorrow night at my parents' house (along with Mitchell) so Dave and I can go to a wedding in Atlanta. Maybe someday she will want to spend the weekend with us! Hope your weekend is filled with fun things, too!
