ain't no mountain high enough...

Reagan received the climbing higher award at school for
best manners & quality thinking!
When living in a house with 5 boys (this is one of the many instances that Bill is categorized with the children), "best manners" isn't a phrase that I hear very often (many of you would be disgusted, as I often am, to sit at our dinner table)! I am grateful that Reagan tries really hard to be polite and for a teacher that appreciates his efforts! His teacher has been teaching for many years and is self-proclaimed "old school". She rewards the class (with fake money) for their good behavior, nice penmanship and many other things. During the 2nd week of school Reagan told us that they weren't aloud to yawn in class - that it was rude and that they had to pay her (again, with fake money) if they yawned while she was talking. I love that the kids in her class are expected to behave the way I was expected to behave at that age! Reagan loves it too - which is one of the many reasons they are a perfect pair!
