Andrew was beyond thrilled to learn that he would be recognized as a young author at the Young Authors Tea last week. In his short, sweet little life, I haven't seen him want something this much.
Not sure how well this video will come through, but here's an attempt for my far away family who didn't get to be there in person.
Little man waiting for his turn (what you can't quite see - his legs were crossed).
Reading his poem.
Enjoying goodies after.
He had a very special cheering section - Monie, Grandpa Jerry, and Tia (from NYC!).
The award.
Celebratory Starbucks.
SPRING
A poem by Andrew O'Connell
Spring is bees buzzing
Spring is smelling burgers on the grill
Spring is feeling the breeze tickling my cheeks
Spring is playing at the park
Spring is beautiful buds on the trees
very sweet... and an amazing poem!
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing this - such a sweet and precious time for him. Well done Andrew!! Love, Grandma Kathy
