Tyler, the author

Last Friday, Tyler's teacher sent me a text message to let me know that Tyler was a 1st place young authors winner!  He won 1st place in 3rd grade for non-fiction at his school.  Now his writing will be sent to the state competition, which will be in the spring.

Needless to say, I had a big, proud smile on my face.  We are all excited for him.  His writing was a class assignment near the beginning of the school year.  There is some exaggeration to make for "juicy" writing, as they call it.  Here it is.  (And for the record...his daddy does have time to help with dinner, particularly helping to clean it up every night.) :-)
