Art Awards Ceremony

Tatiana had been in the arts class at the co-op.  None of the art was sent home and instead was kept to be displayed at the Wylie Art Gallery.  

I don't know why that inserts rotated.   But, that is the art gallery where her art was shown.   They had more of those white things in the middle for art work.   The kid's art will be up for the whole month of April.  We all looked at the art.   Then the kids sat down in a circle and the parents stood around.   The Mayor of Wylie handed out the art awards.   Every kid got an award based on what they did best in.  Hers was best color blending.   She had done a really pretty purple rabbit.   What thing that really struck me was that when they called Tatiana's name and her award, the applause was twice as loud as for anyone else.  My child the popular one, who would have thought it?

After the arts awards there were the "teacher awards", basically it was what Cheryl said our kids did well.  Often they were personality related.   When she called Tatiana up, the first thing Tatiana did was give her a big hug on her thighs.  I knew what Tatiana's award would be, "Best Hugger".  It sort of was, but Cheryl tried to make it sound art related.

This is Tatiana when she first went up to get the teacher award.  That is my little hugger.
