Wildflower Garden
Caleb receiving one of his THREE awardsThis posting will be about some recent achievements in our family. After much research, procrastination, more research and manual labor- our wildflowers are planted! We bought them from Hidden Savanna which specializes in Michigan native plants. The owner was really helpful as we tried to figure out what needed to be done/bought. We bought 9 different species of wildflowers which came out to about 100 plants. I was impressed at how quickly we got them planted. Nate installed the fence because we have crazy rabbits here and we do not want our investment eaten overnight. The flowerbed is sparse, but in a couple of years it should look great- if we can keep the plants alive!
Tonight Caleb's school had Academic Awards Night. We received a letter stating Caleb was receiving an award and we should attend. We had no idea what to expect and Caleb didn't either. He received 3 awards! Outstanding Academic Achievement in Spanish, Music and he received the top honor of Overall Outstanding Academic Achievement for his class. Now I realize this is kindergarten we're talking about and it seems a little over the top to give such awards, but I have been impressed with the work kindergarteners do these days. We are just plain proud of Caleb and how hard he has worked this year! Way to go buddy!
