Carson surprised me by deciding to run for student council this year. I had always thought he'd be great at it, but hadn't anticipated him wanting to the "scary" prep work to make it happen. At Pioneer Ridge Elementary, student council is made up of 5 third graders, 5 fourth graders, and 5 fifth graders. Students have to make one poster and give a speech (third graders spoke to their own class, the upper grades spoke to their full grades) in order to run for office. Given our difficulties with Carson and performing in flag football games, I was nervous to see what he would do, but he did awesome! He came up with a slogan on his own. We helped him create the poster and write the speech, which he apparently did a great job on because he was voted in! He has loved being in student council. I'm really proud of him for doing something hard and scary. It sure paid off, and he's having some great experiences because of it. Way to go, Little Man!
