A School Board Adventure

Last week we received a letter from the Sturgeon Bay School District, requesting that we bring our middle son, Bret Jr., to a School Board meeting this evening.

Sounds like fun, doesn't it.

Actually, it wasn't bad news, it was good news. Here is Bret being recognized by the the Superintendent and the School Board...




They presented him with this certificate "in recognition of your oustanding effort to help our district and students."





Here is the text of the citation:  "Bret Bicoy is a dependable student and is dedicated to exemplifying responsibility, positive attitude, and open-mindedness.  He has proven to be a thoughtful member of our school, and motivates his fellow classmates to try new things by simply being himself.  It has been a pleasure working with Bret so far this year and we look forward to watching his success."

Feel free to send accolades to Cari and me as his parents!

Wife, Mother of 6, and Straight A Student

We received this letter earlier this week...


Yes, my wife, mother to 6 children, just received "highest honors" for her perfect 4.0 grade point average in her first semester back in college.

My kids are mad because if their mommy gets straight A's and can still be a mom to six children, those six children have no excuse for not doing the same!
