A Wonderful Honor....







Eric and I attended our staff Christmas party yesterday at the Dakota Sioux Casino near Watertown. We had a very nice lunch and played games. The superintendent asked me to come up in front and presented me with a satin star quilt for completing my doctoral degree. The drum group from Tiospa Zina which included some of my former students sang an honor song and all of the staff made a receiving line to congratulate me. It was a wonderful honor and the quilt is absolutely gorgeous. One of my co-workers, who is the elementary counselor made it.






On another topic, Kelsey will be going back to the hearing specialist in Watertown on Thursday to check her ears. Hopefully, she will not need tubes put in her ears. She has a really bad cough and runny nose, which we hope improves. Have a great week everyone!
