You must be SO PROUD of Reilly, Shannon!!  To be reinforced for being positive and enthusiastic is GRAND.  
He is a beautiful child...obviously inside and out!!..I LOVE his eyes~
(In our area, they call this award "outstanding student" versus "terrific kid" but it's the same concept.  I have a grandson that rec'd this last year and believe you me, his little self REALLY needed it as his parents have abandoned him for their meth addiction)  Seeing it taped to his desk on grandparents day last year warmed my heart.

Oh I am proud! He was pretty proud of himself too.

Yes he definitely has beautiful eyes, and his lashes make every female envious. Including me!

Awww that's a sad story. So where is he now?

He and his other brother and sister are being raised by/adopted by family.  They are loved abundantly now, but nothing replaces your parent's love.  Thanks for asking Shannon♥

And on the "beautiful eyes" note......YOU and BOTH your boys have GORGEOUS eyes.....☺

Yay Reily!!! This is definetly an award to frame. I'm sure this is one of many awards in Reily's future.  Hopefully he brings it along for dinner this evening with the grandparents....a belated birthday and Reily's award celebration!!

That's true Connie. But being a good parent doesn't always equal biological. As long as the parents/adoptive parents show love, support, nurturing etc, that's what truly matters.

Thanks Connie, my husband has gorgeous eyes too.

Thanks Ellen. Yeah I think he was wanting to take it with him tonight to show Grandma and Grandpa. They'll be proud too!

Very proud G. But I'm still trying to figure out how he can be so different at school and at home
