Rucker Rocks!!!

Mason with Ms. Kopek



Ms. Kopek awarded Mason with the "Rucker Rocks" award at their fist all school Rucker Rocks assembly. The Wednesday before the assembly, I received a phone call from Mrs. Ferguson (the principal) that went something like this: "Hi Mrs. Bradley, this is Mrs. Ferguson, principal from Rucker Elementary. I have Mason Bradley here in my office...." I'm thinking to myself, really??? He's always loved school and done great - what could he of done this early in the game to warrent a call home? She continues "His teacher Ms. Kopek awarded him the Rucker Rocks award for being kind, thoughtful and always ready to learn. He is what Rucker is all about!" Whew! We are so proud of him for being a great student and so glad that his school has a program to recognize good behavior. And have I mentioned we love Rucker. We love their teachers and the principal. They have exceeded our expectations.

Paxton Goes to School Too

This year I'm teaching two days a week at Prosper First Baptist, and so Paxton started school there 2 days a week. Above he is with Ms. Jennifer, his teacher, who he thanks God for every night in his prayers. He loves school and it was an easy transition for him. In fact, he throws a little fit on mornings when I tell him, "no we aren't going to school today". And he'll respond back to me, "I go to school and play with friends". Oh - he's going to be a social one.
