Landon's Blessing

On May 22nd, my Landon completed his time in elementary school and graduated from the 5th grade.  (My heart hurts a little as I write this!)  Where has the time gone? 
This picture is before the graduation started.  They are standing in front of Nichols-Lawson Middle School, the school Mason is finishing and Landon will be starting.
The graduation service was very well done but what was such a blessing was that Landon was chosen for the Star award in his class!  One girl and one boy is chosen from each class and Landon got it! 
Another reason Landon hated to leave Bayfield besides finishing his year as Student Council President, is that he wanted to see if he would be chosen for Citizen of the Year.  While that is something that his teacher chooses, the Star award is voted on by the students and then the teacher has to approve it.  How exciting that was for us to see God blessing his move to Alabama!

He also got the Presidental Academic Excellence Award for his all A's and an All A award.  He finally got some recognition for all his hard work.  Bayfield does not give academic awards out until 5th grade so he hasn't gotten any award since 1st grade when he was at Parkside.

This is Landon's teacher, Mrs. Harmon

And I was very happy that his Nuna was here for the graduation....


This is Landon with his best friend Max and Max's big brother Brooks

It's kind of neat that his best friend in Bayfield's name is Max and his best friend here is Max.  Not that they replace each by any means but it just seems that God is showing him that if we are faithful to obey, He is faithful to bless us...even in friendships!

CONGRATULATIONS LANDON!!
