She was also a winner in a writing contest for Jordan School District. She wrote a poem and the district compiled a book with her poem in it. She went to a little award ceremony and was able to read her poem. It was fun.
She also won the Riverton City Choice Award for April. We went to a City Council Meeting and the mayor recognized her along with another student and teacher from her school. She received some gift certificates and her picture was in the local newsletter. She was very excited about that!
She's been so happy with all the attention. We're very proud of her and I'm very grateful for little contests and awards that give kids opportunities to be recognized. She has been thrilled!

Yay for Brooklyn!! It was fun to see her picture in the city newsletter.
That is so cool!! I will have to tell my kids about this. You will have to show us the picture of her in the newspaper. Tell her congratulations.
