Leader of the Week!

Joseph got in the van with all the kids we carpool with and started telling a secret with the condition, "Don't tell my Mom." So I said, "Secrets secrets are no fun, secrets secrets hurt someone." They had never heard that, but to be honest I don't think I did until I was in high school. Then Joseph said, "It has something to do with lunch at the end of the month." "You're Leader of the Week?!" I said. He said, "How did you know?" Of course he has told me about this before. He got a certificate and they said his name on the morning announcements, and at the end of the month, he gets to eat McDonald's for lunch with the principal! When we got home, Dan said, "What do you have to do to be leader of the week?" "You have to be good and 'wow' your teacher."

Way to go Joe!

You'll also notice the cavernous hole in his mouth...he lost his upper right tooth just before his birthday and he didn't get it when the first person asked him if he'd been in a fight. :) Lost tooth bottom left on Friday at school, and other top front tooth on Sunday just after conference. He temporarily lost Friday's tooth so it went under the pillow on Sat night, and what do you know the tooth fairy was very busy that night, so she couldn't come. So both teeth went under on Sunday night and when he awoke it appeared she had had 2 nights working overtime...but no! When mom went to situate her pillow to feed the baby, lo and behold!, the tooth fairy had played an April fool's joke and left a Utah quarter and a bi-centennial quarter under her pillow. Silly tooth fairy...!

One more 'hip-hip-hooray!' for the Leader of the Week!
