You reap what you sow

The month of March is such a busy month for both schools and parents. Lots of recognitions and graduations happen left and right. My daughter had their Recognition Day (for Grades 1-5) yesterday, March 26. She just finished her Grade 2 reaping the overall Top 3 for her level.

She was happy on that special day but kind of sad too. When she was in Grade 1 she got the overall Top 1 and now she ranked Top 3. She will turn 9 only this May so I need to explain things that will make her understand what might be the reason/s in such a way I will appease her mind. I am glad that after our heart to heart talk she understood what happened very well. I discussed with her the famous saying “you reap what you sow” and from there she picked things that maybe considered her shortcomings.

For the coming school year, I asked her to have this goal so that everything she will do will lead her in meeting that goal. Anyway, below are pictures during her Recognition Day.
