So Proud

I am so proud of Landon! He recieved Honorable Mention on his Science Fair Project! I'm not gonna lie, these projects are for the birds! Last year, as a third grader, he was expected to do one of these and he had no clue what a science fair project was. Well, this year we took it in stride and did not stress over it. He wanted to do his project related to football somehow. Well, we started researching some ideas and decided to test reaction time! He named his project "Act Fast". These projects, for those of you that haven't had the pleasure of doing one with a 10 year old, are so far beyond their years. Landon's not a dumb kid, but he ain't brillant either. Needless to say, I did have a hand in the project. Last year, we recieved a "B" and I was so mad!! But this year, we did all right, if I don't say so myself!! He was beaming! He was bummed though when he realized that there were several other Honorable Mention ribbons handed out. But, maybe this will make him want to try even harder next year!
