Blake, Jeramie and Stacy after the awards ceremony
Jake, Blake and Ben... friends since pre-school!
Blake's 2nd grade awards ceremony was Tuesday, May 25th. Mrs. Kilmurray called each student up to the stage one by one and read something that she had written about each child. She had a lot of wonderful and positive things to say about Blake (an entire page) so I won't re-type the page. I will tell you some of the things she did say about Blake though: Blake always has the desire to do what is right, Blake is not swayed to do what the crowd is doing, he has his own sense of self and will not compromise his beliefs, he is kind and considerate, he is respectful and polite, he is honest, he admits to his mistakes and learns from them, he kept us laughing with jokes all year, he has perfect comedic timing, he has been dubbed "The President" in our class. Blake received the award for Integrity, and Christ-Like Spirit with a side of Sense of Humor. We pray that these qualities stick with him throughout his life-time and that as the years go by he continues to desire to do what is right and not be swayed to do what the crowd is doing. As far as the side of sense of humor, we all know who he gets that from now don't we?
