Elena's school has a special program that assigns each week to one of the children in the class as the ROAR Kid of the week (we are the Wildcats). Elena gets to take something special for show and tell, a special book, and make a poster to talk about her family and favorite things.
So we put together the poster filled with photos and pictures, packed up her special Frog to share, and she chose to bring her own special storybook written for her; "Lost Frogus - A Journey Through the Villages," a little tale made up when her frog was tossed in the lake and essentially lost. She was pretty upset, so she was comforted when we told her that different animals (buffaloes, egrets, lizards, etc. in The Villages) help get the frog back home. We always travel with a spare frog - or 3!!! - and so by the time we got home, her frog was waiting for her. We wrote it down and had it published for her to have as a keepsake someday. She was pretty proud to share that this week!
So here's to our ROAR Kid...we are proud of you and love you, Elena!
