Terrific Kid (aka Jack's awesome day)!

Now, Justin and I have always known that Jack is a terrific kid, but we were so excited to discover that Jackson was chosen by his teacher to receive the December Terrific Kid award!  Only one kid per class is chosen each month so it was a pretty big deal and we are SO proud of him!  The award ceremony was on the same day as his class Christmas party.  And not only that, but they got to wear the pajamas to school because it was the last day before Christmas break.  So the whole family drove to school that morning for the award ceremony breakfast (donuts) and watched Jack receive a very cool laminated certificate with wonderful things his teacher said about Jack.  After the breakfast I walked Jack to class and stayed to help with the Christmas party.  During the party, Jack lost his first tooth!  What a day!  :)

Yep, there's our terrific kid! 

Each month's terrific kids get to have their photo on a star for the month.  :)

There's our boy (far right). :)

Now it's party time in his class where he got even more yummy food!

And.... Out came his first tooth!  The bottom front left... Which also happened to be the very first tooth he ever  got at almost 8 months old.  How time flies!

And so it begins.  One down, nineteen to go! :)
