Cohen's school has a tradition of each month selection a certain "moral focus" they want the students to work on. Then at the end of the month they hold a special ceremony to celebrate those students who excelled in working on that particular focus. Cohen was selected as a student who had really grown in the area of perseverance - and if you know Cohen this is something we are always working on (he is a little like his mom and wants to be perfect the very first time you try something - opps) So we were very excited to join the moral focus assembly and celebrate this with him. Mom, Dad, Kendall, Kirsten with a couple of friends and Nana were in attendance to cheer loudly and embarrass him :)

Just making sure we were watching :)
The other kindergarten class did a little skit about having perseverance in different jobs they may have in the future
