David Gets his 'Student of the Month' Award

Just like last year, David got chosen again as 'Student of the Month' and the trait is for 'Honesty'. This was on March 18. The school year is 3 quarters out and we're happy that he got this award before the school year ends. The students are the ones who vote for the awardee and I coudn't agree more, David is such a sincere and truthful boy! The kids know and are quite aware that being thruthful regardless of whatever mistake or wrondoing they have done, they have to let us know. Of course, it was not easy at first and there were some struggles in the past but I believe they have learned their lessons and have learned them well. This is very important to us and we're fortunate that we have instilled this trait in them in a very positive way. Hopefully and prayerfully, they will not forget as they grow older and wiser, even when there are more temptations and influences that can affect them.

Missy is Student of the Month

Missy is once again Student of the Month.  It's her first for 2nd grade and we went to Somerset to watch the program last Wednesday. This time the award is for 'Citizenship'. I can't agree more. She is such a wonderful, kind, thoughtful, obedient, friendly little girl. We are so fortunate to have this gift from God to daily show us that God is real in our lives. Hopefully, our other gift, David will also get chosen in due time.

I was able to test my new toy, the Lumix LX3 and it does make wonderful HD videos (still too). The video here is not actually HD but if you click on the link to the vimeo site, you'll find the HD version of this video.

I also took some snapshots with the LX3 and here they are.
