Tabor- They already do. It is pretty crazy. Joey gave a girl in his class a compliment the other day and told her he thinks she is great and the rest of the girls started bawling their little heads off. Uh-oh. ;) All of my boys seem to be good with the girls in their classes. Lots of little girlie crushes going on. I don't know if it stems from having a little sister or what, but they are sweet boys. Plus, they are super cute (of course I am a little biased, I know).

I used to live for spelling bees when I was a kid. I was always the winner in my classroom, probably because I read so much. My kids NEVER had spelling bees! Isn't that odd? I'm glad to see that some schools still do them!
Oh how fun to go and see them! But I'm sure it was nerve wracking listening to him spell his word(s) and hope he would get them right! Always loved spelling beels when I was in school.
Back in the dark ages, when I was a kid, I loved it when it was time for the Spelling Bee eliminations to begin. Funny thing was I was never nervous at them but that was a drawback as I got too cocky and never got beyond 3rd place in the eliminations. However, on a really good note for our school district here back then, we had numerous kids who qualified to move up frequently to the state-wide championships as well as some who even made it to the nationals. And, some of them placed high in the nationals with at least one girl winning first place! Quite a coup for as small as our school district was and still is. Good for Ben for looking very confident of his spelling prowess and hope he goes far with that!
I love how he's looking up! Like the answer will fall from the sky!
ReplyDeleteHow cute and how precious. I can see the girls melting in a few years.

Spelling bees are tough!
