Student Council...

Thursday after school Ainsley was all but screaming through the door... it was student council time again and she wanted to give it another go!

She has a full schedule... besides school there's homework, constant reading to achieve her reading goal, piano lessons, swimming and other activities at the Gym, plus she recently begged to join the strings program (more on that later). So needless to say she's booked... more to my liking but booked nevertheless. So I was temped to flat out say "No... you've got a full plate." But it's hard to say no when she wants to write a speech and stand in front of her peers to deliver it!...who normally likes to do those things??? She does.

So off to the dollar store and $5 bucks later the poster was made. Friday morning she was very excited...

with poster and speech... she headed off to school.

She didn't win this year..(silently whew... from me) but she was happy and glad she tried out again this year. The only boy running won against all the girls.
