Drew's Day in Three Parts

Drew had a very busy day today.  It was Dress Up Day at Irving for School Spirit Week, and Drew opted to wear his tux with tails.  He called me from school at lunchtime to say, "Mom!  Everyone who sees me thinks I look great!"  Everybody's crazy 'bout a sharp-dressed man!

This evening was the annual Little Huskies Wrestling Awards Banquet.  Drew was awarded a warm-up jacket for his hard work this year.  His record was 33-13-1, and he placed second at Regionals.

Next up:  the annual Swap, Shop and Read at Irving.  I love this idea!  A few weeks before the event, the students are asked to bring in books they own but no longer read.  The books are sorted by genere and laid out on tables.   The night of the Swap, each student who donated books gets to take home new reading material equal to the number of books donated.  Drew picked up a book or two for himself, but he was also generous with his picks, giving me an opportunity to pick up some reading material for spring break.
