is a big deal.
really.
super citizen is an award given to a student or two from every class, each month. they have a big assembly, that the whole school is there for, and it's sort of a party. velzy was chosen last month because she was "the best she could be in all things" or something like that. she was pretty stoked.
(fuzzy picture but i like it too much not to post it)
although at times she can drive me crazy, velzy is a sweetheart. she is a great student, has very nice hand writing (especially for a lefty), and loves school and her teachers. yesterday she really wanted to push the stroller and i asked why, to which she responded "i just really want to help you. you do so much for me all the time i want to help you." oh. ok. she talks like a big person lately, using words that are descriptive and often says things better than i would. the girl is fast. we have been having races- she is pretty quick and really good at getting in your way so you have to slow down. i am sure the day is not too far off when she really can beat me. just like i am sure she will be taller than me next year. she loves to catch bugs and be outside with her friends. she can be a tad emotional and has a new little attitude that comes with eye rolls. not awesome. but we are working on that.
i love my little super citizen!

ummm, i wanna be super citizen- thats some crazy great loot!
she sounds amazing....maybe minus the eye rolling, but let me tell ya, they replace it with something else, my 7 yr old has got at-ti-TUDE! yay girls!
nice job all round, she's super cool like her mama!
Way to go Velzy!!! Nice lei. Did she get all sugared up after the "party"? I think she could teach a thing or two to Ella about helping her mom because she does so much for her. What a sweet girl you've got!
its still so weird that you have a kid in school... and of course your kid is gonna be a "super citizen"! yeah velz! i think those kind of things are important...help create motivation....good luck with those eye rolls!! love your girls..
Super Citizen!!! Good job Velzy. I love that she wanted to help you by pushing the stroller. I wish Gio was a girl, maybe he'd be more like that. He is sweet, but it's different.
I'm in love with the candy headband and impressed with big girl Velzy who I still think of as the little little that we first started playing with way back when beach days first started. Way to go super gal!
i think velzy and eve would get along real well. It seems as if God sends the passionate ones first. They tend to be more motherly and very helpful:)
I love her sexy eyes in the bottom photo. Yeah Velzy!
Sorry to hear about Lola. Hopefully everything gets taken care of. Sad for you and her.
yay! Congrats Velzy! That is AWESOME!
oh yeah!!! way to go velz!! i totally remember being a super citizen, you had to bring a white shirt to school so they could print it with the smiling sun that said super citizen underneath and then your mom had to make a poster with pictures of you to put up in the caf...awesome times!!
