4-H Presentation Day

I am so proud of Emily! Today we went to the 4-H presentation day and Emily got up in front of a room full of people and did a presentation on dolphins. She spoke up , was poised and did an amazing job! She had a poster to set up, props and set the whole thing up all by herself, read well and did a beautiful job. Much applause and praise from other people. She won a green ribbon, a sticker and $3. dollars. She was just giddy for hours. Such a positive exsperience for her. I never could've done that at 7 years old. 4 months ago she felt too shy to say her name at meetings, now she's doing public speaking. . Amazing(I have video which i will add as soon as possible)

Animal Rehabilitation Center

A local center had an open house and tour. Since children couldn't handle the animals , each child got to take a stuffed animal through and have it treated by the staff. They loved it. Right behind this facility was a local nature center so we went to that too. Fun trip!

The extra picture is Alison's first attempt at writing her name. She did a great job!
