Walker's principal recently called
and told us that he was choosing Walker
to be spotlighted in a new,
local publication. South Bosque is the
first elementary to be showcased
in the magazine and out of all of his
550 students, Mr. Everett chose Walker!
We were beyond proud to say
the very, very least!!!!!!!!!!
I wrote about it in this post:
My mother called me one day last week
to let me know that as she was flipping
through a new magazine called
"Woodway Life" she came across this page:
Of course, we ran out to our mailbox to
see if one had arrived for us!!!
"Hewitt Life" indeed had come...
We were so excited:)
Students were also showcased from
the high school and the middle school.
Walker is in very good company!!!
I was in Walker's classroom a couple of
days after it came out. A guy in his
class walked up to me with it in his hand
and asked if I had seen it. ha!;)
I then asked him if he had brought it
for Walker to have as an extra and he said,
"No! I brought it for Walker to sign for me!"
Sweet Jed! I love these 4th grade boys:)
I love what his teacher, Mrs. Wellborn,
wrote: "Walker is a special student
because he is wise beyond his years,
and one who shows great compassion with
kindness and consideration for
others, and the willingness to go
above and beyond what is expected
of him." Makes this mama CRY!!!
You never know if and when
a child can change or something
can change him or her,
so we certainly celebrate
an honor like this!!!
Walker answered all of the questions
on his own. I had never even heard
of the song he chose as his favorite
and of course I looked it up on YouTube
to make sure it was okay! ha!
After he finished his questions, I added;) a
few things (like I play with my little brother &
sister when I get home from school) but
before we sent it in and he saw my
"additions", he made me remove them!
hee hee! I love his answer for what
he does right before he goes to bed...
"pray" ~ and he certainly does ~
no matter what!
Sweet Boy. Love of my Life.
Troy has also cracked me up over this.
I swear he has been carrying around
the magazine everywhere and showing
it to anyone who will look.
We are just a little;) proud
and a WHOLE lot thankful!!!!!!!!
Praying this verse over and over
for my two sons........
"May our sons increase in wisdom
and in stature and in favor
with God and man."
Luke 2:52
