I’ve always known Goose was a good speller, he takes after his dad.  This week he proved it by being selected to represent his class in the school-wide spelling bee.  I am super proud.  Last year when I commented on his spelling to his teacher (the one I hated) she blew off his spelling skills.   Yes, I made sure to find her today to let her know he was in the spelling bee.  (Me, a grudge holder?)

He was so cool today, until he missed his word.  But regardless, he was so excited to participate and claimed that next year he would win.  

Little does he know that I am already thinking about how best to prepare for this next year.  Now that I know what words they start with, I know what he needs to study.  I can totally see us in DC one of these years.  And if not him, Baby Hulk is a good back up in spelling.
