Breakfast of Champions

Each year, the Hermiston Chamber of Commerce hosts the Breakfast of Champions for the schools in the surrounding area. We got a note in Easton's backpack that he was selected by his school to recieve this award for being an all around good kid. I didn't think much of it, thinking that there would be a ton of kids, one from each classroom, and that we might watch Easton walk across the stage and recieve a piece of paper in an assembly line like high school graduation or something. I was totally wrong! They served a nice breakfast, and his classroom teacher and his principal were there waiting for us, who had nominated him to get this award. And it wasn't a ton of kids, but Easton was one of 2 kids in his whole school to get this award. His teacher said some nice words about Easton when she presented him with the award, and then he got a framed document, and took a picture with his teacher and Ronald McDonald, who was also on the scene for the ceremony. I was indeed a proud mother today!! (And I'm definitely glad that we went and didn't blow it off this morning.) p.s. I have a video of his presentation, but it isn't wanting to upload right now.
