Honoring some special people...

This past Wednesday, my school district hosted an award's night for people who go above and beyond to support kids like me! It was called the Silver Dolphin Award. Some of my favorite people were nominated! I wanted to take a moment to honor them:
My teacher Ms. Tricia is THE BEST! She helps me everyday learn how to do new things. She always makes learning fun and lets us do lots of art and music in class. She always listens to me when things aren't going right. I'm so lucky to have had her as my teacher for the past three years! She was one of the "special honorees" at the ceremony!


My friend Andrew is so fun! He reads to me in class a lot- mostly Dr. Seuss books because he knows how much I like them. He will stand with me at assemblies and go out of his way to see if I'm ok. He even came to my birthday party last year! I will miss him next year when we are at different schools. This is a picture of him and Mr. Kliment, who is another one of my teachers. He is the teacher for Andrew's class and always makes me feel special and included in class. Everyday I get to share my news with the class.

This is Alexis, and her mom. She is a high school senior and is going to be a special education teacher someday. She comes over and helps me at home sometimes. She likes to play with me and reads me lots of books!
My other friend Erica was nominated, but she couldn't go to the ceremony. She also reads me lots of books and give me "air hugs" when she sees me at school! She is so fun to be around. Here we are at our field trip the lighthouses. 

My mom helped with the ceremony- I didn't get to go, but she said everyone felt very honored!
