Spencer is a fast one!!!

This school year has ended for Spencer with a bang!  Not only has he finished the 4th grade, but he has now finished his time in Elementary School.  Yes, next year my sweet little boy will be in middle school.  I remember when I was in middle school and I would be remiss to tell you that I am truly terrified of this stage in his life.  So many things he will learn, both good and bad, over the next few years and he is no longer going to be as naive and innocent and he once was.  But I suppose that is the way life works.

His end of year program was a few days before the last day of school and he received several awards!  He got an award for A & B honor roll all year.  He got an award for being in the top 5% of his class on the standardized testing, he got an award for being the fastest runner in the 9 year old catagory!!  THis one surprised me, I know he is pretty fast-but top place??  I was amazed.  I too often take for granted what a wonderful son I have in Spencer.  He is smart and funny, and apparently quite fast.

 This is his medal for A & B honor roll

 Trophy for being a stealth runner!!!

Certificate for being so darn smart!

And Alistair was so proud of his big brother, that he just got all tuckered out.

Bring on Middle School!  At least I know now that if Spencer gets in a pickle he can outrun whatever is chasing him.
