Well folks, he's done it again!! Eric earned himself another scholarship by writing a phenomenal essay!! Funny story about this essay: It was the night before essays were due when we finally remembered to do them (yes, I say WE because I help Eric get started). Eric was studying for a test so I grabbed the list of essays and ripped out the ones Eric didn't qualify for. It didn't take long for me to notice the questions seemed oddly familiar...as in the EXACT questions from the year before. So the next day when the essays were due, Eric picked out two he had turned in the year prior and jazzed them up. And just like last year, he won $1,000 with LIKELY the same essay. Ha. Joke's on them for not changing the questions.
On Saturday, October 12th we all got dressed up and went to the scholarship award's banquet so Eric could receive his $1,000 for the "Boring" scholarship:
Boring is right. This night drug on and on with all the talk of CCC alumni and whatnot. Scholarships were at the very end OF COURSE.
I wasn't the only one bored. Kinsey and I spent most of the time in the back of the room because she did not want to sit still. Getting a babysitter never even occurred to me. I still take my baby girl everywhere I go, but I may need to loosen the reigns a little.
We're so proud of Daddy!!
