THE OFFICIAL 2+2 CHILD ACCOLADES THREAD
After reading the thread in "Books/Software" about Lee Jones, I decided to create this thread so the local 2+2 tribe could list their child accolades.
I'll go first: 2nd Grade -- 1st Place in Science Fair |

In first grade, during our recital of "The Twelve Days of Christmas", I was the partridge in the pear tree.
As that is the one that gets mentioned the most, I was the star of the show. |

Re: THE OFFICIAL 2+2 CHILD ACCOLADES THREAD
i kindergarten i cam home from school. unlocked the door. locked it behind me. made myself a bowl of cereal and watched tv till my grandmother got home from work at 6:30 or 7 pm. i was not to answer the door or phone unless the phone rang once then started ringing again.
one day i came home and heard a strange noise. i cracked the bathroom door and saw lots of smoke. i dropped everything and ran 5 blocks to the store. i told them my house was on fire. they called 911. when we got back to my house my grandmother and grandfather were ther with the fire dept. turns out i was just a busted pipe under the bathroom sink blowing hot water and the fire dept fixed it. everyone had big smiles on there faces and told me i did real good. they even gave me a medal. |

Who cares. Everyone won too many awards to remember when they were a kid because that is what you do for kids: give them lots of awards to encourage their progress.

[ QUOTE ]
4th grade 2nd place in spelling bee (it haunts me to this day that I misspelled secretary) [/ QUOTE ] Dude, how do you get "secretary" wrong? I was school spelling bee champ 3 years running in 5th, 6th, and 7th grade, the last of which I was also district champ, eventually getting knocked out in regionals on the word "liaison." I won a t-shirt and a thesaurus, yippee. Ever watch the Spelling Bee Finals on ESPN? Now there's high drama; a kid fainted on stage this year. |
