4th grade Spelling Bee Champion
Nathan won the district spelling bee for the 4th grade. I have to say, it brought back many memories, and even gave me butterflies in my stomach.
Here is where you find out something you may not have known about me---
I went to the National Spelling Bee.
I know, kind of nerdy, but true!
My mom and I used to wake up at 5:00 in the morning before the rest of the family, and practice spelling words, sitting on my bed (I know, crazy). I vividly remember asking her during one of those study sessions---"Do you think it is possible that I could ever win enough spelling bees to go to the National Spelling Bee?" She told me that "of course it was possible," I could do anything if I tried hard enough. I believed her. And it happened.
CRAZY.......
But all said and done, my mom really taught me so many lessons in life like that. You can do anything! Just try!
