Last Friday was a big day in Zoe's life. Not only did she get to go out to lunch during a school day with me, but she also got to be the Star Student.
Most of us remember this or something similar from our own childhood. Basically, its where one child a week is the center of attention. She got to make a big poster of herself- picture, fun facts, favorite things, etc. All throughout the week she got to be a special helper to the teacher. She got to be the line leader, help pass out papers, that kind of stuff, and then on Friday, Louis and I, and her dad went to the school for her presentation. She showed off her poster and then shared a bunch of scrapbook photos as well as a few of her favorite stuffed animals. She got to wear a special microphone thing around her neck and call on kids to answer their questions. She was sooo in her element. That kid LOOOOVES attention.
It is tradition in our house to get to go out to eat on your birthday if you're at school. Zoe chose McDonald's. Surprised? I think not. Toys, cheeseburgers, fries, play areas....what's not to love when you're six!!! I'm not a fan on McDonalds, other than their sweet tea, but who am I to say no to my kiddos. :) We finished off lunch with a cinn-a-melt, and THAT was the best part. She was thrilled to go back to school with a McDonalds cup and toy to show all her friends.
Then it was on to the Star Student Presentation!!!
