Luke's Great Report

Yesterday we had Luke's second parent teacher conference. He, like his siblings, had been sick all day. But we gave him some Motrin so he could make it to the conference. Mrs. Grimes had nothing but great things to say about our Luke. She said he is very smart and very caring. She said that if she is concerned about another student, she can put them at Luke's table and she knows he will take care of them. She said Luke is a great leader. She has taught Luke how to check for the next day's lunch and has him teach the other students how to do it. He is so far above in reading. He is at a 2nd grade level. They score according to number. For first grade at this point in the year, they should be at an 8 or 9. Luke is at an 18!! What a smart boy. She said that she feels so lucky that Luke is in her class. She said she would be so sad if one of the other teachers got to have him. Of course I teared up a bit when she was speaking so highly of him and of course Luke teased me about it as we left. After the great conference we let Luke go and choose a book from the book fair as a reward. He chose another Diary of a Wimpy Kid. We are so proud of Luke. What a great example he is to the other students in his class and what great example he is to us. We love you Lukie!!
