(Warning: This might seem like I'm bragging a little bit- well, I am. It's my blog- and I'll brag if I want to, brag if I want to... )
This year we put Big Brother in a special Sunday School Program called Bible Blast. Throughout the school year, we read the entire Children's Bible and he had to learn answers to 10 questions each week. He also had to memorize some scripture. It was a big commitment for him and for us each week. This past Sunday was the final Sunday and we celebrated in the Chapel with a special service honoring the kids.
We knew the kids were each getting a trophee for participating. So, when they skipped Big Brother's name, out of alphabetical order, we thought they forgot him. As the names kept getting called, we got a little worried he'd be the only one left in his seat. Well, to our surprise and excitement, they finally called his name last. He had tied with another boy for "Kindergarten Boy 1st Place Quizzer". He and another boy had never missed a question all program long! He got a little bigger trophee and special recognition.
He got a 2nd trophee for Perfect Attendance- he never missed a Sunday. I told Kevin that was really ours, since we were the ones that got him there!
After, he went to pick up Little Brother from his Sunday School class which started a bunch of problems! He was mighty jealous of the trophees and cried the whole way home. I felt bad for him, since he listened to every page of the Bible and learned the questions too. Too bad there wasn't a little sibling award- he definitely could have earned that!
