Wednesday night was Awana Awards night. Ian was excited to go and finally get his Bear award. He has wanted it all year and asked for it at least once a week. He could hardly wait to get his hands on it Wednesday night. We arrived early so we could get front row seats. This is the first time Ian had an awards program so we wanted to be there front and center to cheer him on. He worked really hard all year learning his verses and reciting them back to his teachers. He looked forward to going to Cubbies every Wednesday and loved wearing his blue Cubbies vest. Every time he earned a new patch he wanted me to hurry and sew it on his vest so he could show it off. Cubbies is a great program and I am thrilled that Ian loved it as much as he did. He will have one more year of Cubbies before he moves on to Sparks when he goes to kindergarten. I can't even think that far ahead, it makes me sad so I refuse to go there. So for now we take a break for summer and keep our Cubbies vest and bag hung up until it's time to start up again in the fall.

Cubbies
Ian is 3. Actually he is 3 years and 7 months but who's counting. The fact that he is 3 is a big deal around here because he is now old enough to start Cubbies. I loved when Isabella was old enough to join Cubbies. She had the same little blue vest, blue bag, and big Cubbies book that we would work on during the week. We practiced verses and she earned lots of patches that I would hand sew on her little blue vest. Ian earned his vest and book last Wednesday. I was there when his teacher called his name and put his vest on him. He was smiling from ear to ear and was so proud of himself. He couldn't wait to get home to look through his book. I hope he is still excited when he actually has to sit down and do the work and learn the verses. It will be a great year for him and I am certain that he will learn a lot and make lots of friends.
Look at me!! I'm a Cubbie!!
