At the conclusion of Adelaide's soccer season, we were thrilled because she had completed all of the events on her 'Reward Chart!'
She played in all of her soccer games without quitting, she sang with the other children in the primary program, and, most importantly, she said her part in the primary program. These may not seem to some like anything hard, but for Adelaide, who has major, major stage fright, completing these tasks took a huge amount of bravery (and bribery...ha ha)!!!
This is our before picture, taken a couple months ago!
And this is our after picture, with her chart fully colored in!
Because of that, she earned the highest reward possible, getting to make a brand new Build-a-Bear. We took her right after she completed her last soccer game, because we were so happy for her and totally thought she deserved to be rewarded promptly!
Adelaide picked a bear that she named Snowflake.
She pumped it up, and
gave it a good washing!
We knew that we would not be able to get away without Lexi getting something. So, we bought her a less expensive Hallmark stuffed animal, which she took the liberty of bathing in the Build-a-Bear bath.
Here is Adelaide and Snowflake! Congrats sweetie, and keep it up!
Congrats Addie, I am so proud of you, since we have a Maddy we know what a big deal all of those things really are. Thats a good idea to make a chart we might do that for maddy next year. YOu guys look happy and that you are doing well. My pregnancy is making me very sick, but other then that we are good. miss you, I will call you soon.
